Describe your project

Debezium is an open-source distributed platform designed for Change Data Capture (CDC), providing applications with an industry-standard way to respond to real-time database changes. It simplifies the process of monitoring and capturing data changes across various databases by providing a robust and scalable solution to stream database change vectors as events. Debezium’s architecture is built on the concept of connectors that interact with and consume database transaction logs, ensuring that every insert, update, or delete operation is captured and published to an event stream, most often using Kafka. This empowers organizations to build event-driven architectures, facilitate microservice communications, and maintain data consistency across distributed systems.

Debezium’s importance lies in its ability to provide real-time insights and integration, which is critical in today’s hyper-focused, data-driven world. Businesses can enhance their decision-making processes, improve user experiences, and ensure data integrity by allowing applications and systems to react instantaneously to changes. Debezium’s integration with Apache Kafka, Quarkus, Strimzi, and Kubernetes emphasizes our open-source first principles, making it a valuable asset for organizations to leverage modern architectures.

Motivation for joining Commonhaus

For Debezium to remain the leading open-source platform for Change Data Capture, we must consider long-term goals to enable the project to adapt to a fast-paced, highly innovative landscape, which includes:

• Continue to grow our community
• Increase the adoption and awareness of Debezium
• Embrace transparency in our roadmap and decision-making processes
• Encourage multi-vendor participation and execution

Joining CommonHaus will enable us to achieve these goals organically and benefit everyone involved.

Things that must be done (bootstrap phase)

• Review the bylaws, especially sections about projects, decision making, and voting for significant decisions.

• Read the bootstrapping agreement.

• If all is well, and you agree to participate in the bootstrapping phase to help us build this thing, then create a PR with the following:

  1. A filled out copy of the bootstrapping agreement. You can make a copy of bootstrapping.md file and check that in, or checkin a filled out pdf. Please follow naming conventions.
  2. An updated CONTACTS.yaml that names your project representative in the EGC section
  3. An updated PROJECTS.yaml that provides details / describes your project
  4. An updated TRADEMARKS.md that adds your project name and project logo (if you have one). Please include the footnote reference, as we are using your project name and logo with your permission until we have a formal agreement in place and resources are transferred.

  The commit should be "Signed-off-by" your GH login (git commit -s -m "<project> bootstrapping agreement, yyyy-mm-dd")
