Subject: [cncf-toc] [VOTE] Vitess project proposal (incubation)

 

The TOC has decided to invite Vitess (https://github.com/youtube/vitess) as an INCUBATION level CNCF project, sponsored by Brian Grant from the TOC.

Vitess is a MySQL-compatible data orchestrator/platform. It orchestrates management of MySQL instances and has been serving all YouTube database traffic since 2011. Vitess has grown to encompass tens of thousands of MySQL nodes. It is also used by companies such as HubSpot, Slack and Square.

Slack presentation from 4-5 months ago. They are contributing heavily to vitess, as can be seen from the contribution stats I just sent, and even a small fraction of traffic was non-trivial.

Stichlabs has fully migrated production to Vitess: video

BetterCloud mentions that they use Vitess on their blog.

IMO, the production usage bar is intended primarily to assess maturity and production-worthiness, and secondarily general applicability (though 3 users isn't really enough for that). I don't think maturity and production-worthiness are concerns in this case. I think better documenting production usage via case studies is something the CNCF could help with.

As with Prometheus, Envoy, and Jaegar, Vitess was developed over the last 7 years or so for Youtube's own use. It has become more relevant to other companies with the (comparatively recent) emergence of Kubernetes. If we're looking for more user-initiated projects, Vitess is one of those.

Ah, I should have made this explicit in our slides, but here is the information to address your concerns about the graduation criteria:


The following eight companies have vitess serving production traffic:

  • YouTube

  • Slack

  • Hubspot

  • Flipkart

  • Stitch Labs

  • Square (Cash App)

  • BetterCloud

  • Quiz of Kings


Of these, engineers from the following companies have made significant contributions to the vitess code base:

  • YouTube

  • Slack

  • Hubspot

  • Flipkart

  • Square (Cash App)

  • StitchLabs


Additionally, the following companies have started making contributions, while in the process of evaluating:

  • Booking.com

  • Github

  • Pinterest (new)


There are also other companies listed in the adopters page. They are evaluating vitess with the intent to mainly use it.


Finally, there are other companies, who are involved with Vitess at various levels, that wish to remain anonymous. So, we haven’t listed them here.


Please let me know if this answers your questions, or if you have others.

I share Camille’s concern.

Note that the only explicit requirement in this regard w.r.t. Incubation level is as follows (from https://www.cncf.io/projects/graduation-criteria/):

  • Document that it is being used successfully in production by at least three independent end users which, in the TOC’s judgement, are of adequate quality and scope.
The proposal says this about adopters:

This is an alphabetical list of known adopters of Vitess. Some have already gone into production, and others are at various stages of testing.


Can we perhaps get some clarification about which are in production, and which are still in testing.

Sorry, this should have been brought up in the due diligence, but unfortunately got missed, by the looks of things.

To follow up on this, with some links for external confirmation:

I think some of the confusion arose due to data being sampled at different times. The original presentation to the TOC was last April, for instance.
 
Slack presentation from 4-5 months ago. They are contributing heavily to vitess, as can be seen from the contribution stats I just sent, and even a small fraction of traffic was non-trivial.

This is an alphabetical list of known adopters of Vitess. Some have already gone into production, and others are at various stages of testing.


Can we perhaps get some clarification about which are in production, and which are still in testing.

Sorry, this should have been brought up in the due diligence, but unfortunately got missed, by the looks of things.

Basically, I'm concerned that there are not really actual production users who also are project committers that aren't YouTube/Google.

Committers from multiple organizations is part of the graduation criteria, not incubation criteria:

That said, growth of non-Google contributors was a concern of mine a year ago, but the situation has changed significantly over the past 9-12 months.

The last 4-5 months:

The top contributor (170 commits, which is a decent number) was from Slack, as was the 3rd-largest contributor. Also in the top 10 were contributors from Hubspot, Github, and Nozzle.

Ah, I should have made this explicit in our slides, but here is the information to address your concerns about the graduation criteria:


The following eight companies have vitess serving production traffic:

  • YouTube

  • Slack

  • Hubspot

  • Flipkart

  • Stitch Labs

  • Square (Cash App)

  • BetterCloud

  • Quiz of Kings


Of these, engineers from the following companies have made significant contributions to the vitess code base:

  • YouTube

  • Slack

  • Hubspot

  • Flipkart

  • Square (Cash App)

  • StitchLabs


Additionally, the following companies have started making contributions, while in the process of evaluating:

  • Booking.com

  • Github

  • Pinterest (new)


There are also other companies listed in the adopters page. They are evaluating vitess with the intent to mainly use it.


Finally, there are other companies, who are involved with Vitess at various levels, that wish to remain anonymous. So, we haven’t listed them here.


Please let me know if this answers your questions, or if you have others.

Bryan Beaudreault <bbeaudreault@...>
 

Hi guys,

I'm an engineer at HubSpot who was part of the decision to adopt vitess over a year ago and have contributed to the project both internally and externally. In that time we have committed numerous features and improvements, and moved along a careful process of evaluation followed by bringing Vitess to production. As Sugu said, we have multiple full time employees working on Vitess, all of which have committed code to Vitess.

In terms of our architecture, we operate microservices at HubSpot, and follow a typical pattern of different microservices getting their own database. We have over 200 separate database clusters of various sizes, each with a QA and production footprint. For the platform teams at HubSpot QA is effectively production, as we have a separate test environment where we stage changes (in total: staging, qa, then prod). Understandably, the definition of production usage should be based on actual customer usage. We have had nearly 100% of QA migrated for months now, and started the prod migration in the last month or so. At this time we have 5 production database clusters migrated to Vitess. That is a small percentage of the total, but these are real applications, powering services used by real HubSpot customers, and we treat prod as mission critical. 

We will be continuing the prod rollout for a few months, but we are well past the evaluation phase. At this point we are fully committed to vitess, with production users, support staff, and active development.

Hope that helps.

Bryan
