Q: Is there any interesting story behind the association with Apache DolphinScheduler?
A: The content of the work is related to the big data scheduling system, so in the process of using Apache DolphinScheduler, some bugfix/improvement/feature are also contributed to the open source community. In the process of community participation and contribution, I also met many like-minded friends and learned a lot of new knowledge.
Q: How long is the source? Why does open source appeal to you?
A: The source is about half a year. In the open source community, everyone is equal and open, and everyone can contribute, discuss, and review code together to help open source software continue to improve and improve. The process of participating in the contribution of the open source community is also the process of reflecting personal value.
Q: Has secondary development been carried out based on DolphinScheduler? Can you introduce the development plan?
A: Functions such as log storage and resource center adding support for cloud object storage have been given back to the open source community.
Q: What was your first impression of the phinScheduler community contribution? What do you hope to gain here?
A: My first impression is equality, openness and tolerance. The committers and PMCs in the community will be very enthusiastic to review the code and give suggestions. I hope that through my contribution, DolphinScheduler will become better.
Q: What do you think is the most critical requirement of the scheduling system? Does DolphinScheduler meet these key needs? What new optimizations and improvements do you expect DolphinScheduler to make in the future?
A: The most critical requirement of the scheduling system is stability. If tasks cannot be scheduled and executed normally, the scheduling system will lose its most basic meaning. DolphinScheduler currently may have bugs in some borderline cases, and the community has been continuously improving to improve stability.
