Hello all! tCRIL is pleased to announce a new contribution project to help advance Open edX platform. This project aims to investigate and provide a reference implementation of Redis Streams as a message bus for cross-application communication in Open edX deployments. We are seeking proposals from existing community members as well as qualified organizations looking for a first project to join the community. All proposals from providers interested in undertaking this work must be submitted by February 1, 2023 and tCRIL expect to choose a provider by February 8, 2023.
At a high level this project hopes to establish Redis Streams as a second message bus, built on the patterns of the existing Kafka bus and have a reference implementation at near-parity to the Kafka bus. We additionally hope to document any blocking issues to full adoption, as well as future work necessary to provide a fully functional, production ready product.
We will be looking for proposals with a strong understanding of the technologies in play, their limitations, and the existing Open edX message bus use case(s) when evaluating bids. Price, timeline, and a proven ability to work with the Open edX code base will also be important factors in our decision.
Details on the project status, as well as a draft Statement of Work explaining the proposed project in more detail, are located at FC-0008 - Redis Streams Event Bus. The draft Statement of Work can (and will) be amended as conversations with the providers unfold but should be considered the most authoritative source of what we are looking for from these proposals.
Please send all proposals to funded-proposals@tcril.org and cc myself at bmesick@tcril.org. Feel free to contact me directly with any questions on Slack at @Brian Mesick or comment on the announcement post at <discuss announcement link>.
