Activity is introduced

Open Source Summer (full name: Open Source Software Supply Chain Light Program — Summer 2021) is a summer activity for college students co-sponsored by the Institute of Software, Chinese Academy of Sciences and The OpenEuler Community, aiming to encourage students to actively participate in the development and maintenance of open source software and promote the vigorous development of excellent open source software community. Together with major open source communities, the organizer offers programs for the development and maintenance of important open source software, and is open to students from universities around the world.

Students are free to choose projects, communicate with community mentors and write project plans. Selected students will work with community mentors to complete the development as planned and contribute to the community. Students will be assessed by the community on their completion, and the sponsor will give generous bonuses to students based on the evaluation results. Students will also have the opportunity to become community committers.

Apache APISIX

Apache APISIX was donated by Shenzhen Branch Technology to Apache Software Foundation. It is a new generation of cloud-native API gateway that provides rich traffic management features such as load balancing, dynamic upstream, grayscale publishing, service fusing, authentication, observability, and more.

Apache APISIX is the fastest graduating project of the Apache Software Foundation, with nearly 200 contributors worldwide and a very active community. Apache APISIX is already used by hundreds of enterprise users worldwide to handle core business traffic, including finance, Internet, manufacturing, retail, operator and many other industries.

Welcome college students who are interested in open source and like challenges to sign up for the Apache APISIX Community project!
