Motivation - Why Changes are Needed

This change starts referring to the Polaris-Tools repository within the Apache Polaris root ReadMe and Polaris website. This implements #2843 .

My goal here is to change the documentation based on use case rather than repository. Meaning, in the Polaris website, I put references to the Polaris-Tools in a Catalog Migration section rather than having a separate Polaris-Tools section. This makes it likely for users to easily discover the specific tool they need.

I did not reference the benchmarks directly since this is more related to development rather than end user usage. I did reference that there are tools in the README.

Small Changes

  • I did some small refactoring of the site README to help me better understand how to work with the site.

Does this PR introduce any user-facing change?

Yes, it's a docs change.

How was this patch tested?

Locally by firing up the localhost.

CHANGELOG.md

No need here. This is just a docs change.

* Add documentation around Polaris-Tools
* Related to apache#2843

* Fix Jandex Maven coordinates (apache#2888)

The entry `jandex = { module = "io.smallrye.jandex:jandex", version ="3.5.0" }` is wrong (coordinates are `io.smallrye:jandex`), and Jandex is defined elsewhere as `smallrye-jandex`.
Interestingly, these (broken) coordinates seem to cause the consistent re-creation of the Quarkus 3.29.0 PR (the cause is a mystery).

* Update plugin com.gradle.develocity to v4.2.2 (apache#2597)

* Site: Hugo docs relative links (apache#2892)

* Update dependency software.amazon.awssdk:bom to v2.36.2 (apache#2901)

* Update GitHub Artifact Actions (apache#2895)

* Formatting: apply Spotless to :polaris-distribution (apache#2900)

* Build: Capture jcstress output in a log file (apache#2890)

The jcstress output is pretty verbose and prints a lot to the console.
This change captures the output in a log file. In case of a test failure, the output is logged to the console, but only in case of a failure.

* Prep: Site for 1.2 release  (apache#2877)

* Adding 1.2.0 as one of active releases (apache#2916)

Co-authored-by: Yufei Gu <yufei.apache.org>

* Use official spark image (apache#2899)

* Update dependency ipykernel to v7.1.0 (apache#2918)

* Added missing features doc (apache#2898)

* Added missing features doc

* Added missing features doc

* Site: Add a blog for StarRocks and Apache Polaris Integration (apache#2851)

* NoSQL: Node IDs - API, SPI + general implementation (apache#2728)

* NoSQL: Node IDs - API, SPI + general implementation

This PR provides a mechanism to assign a Polaris-cluster-wide unique node-ID to each Polaris instance, which is then used when generating Polaris-cluster-wide unique Snowflake-IDs.

The change is fundamental for the NoSQL work, but also demanded for the existing relational JDBC persistence.

Does not include any persistence specific implementation.

* NoSQL: Fail node-management-impl init after timeout

Also move the expensive part to a `@PostConstruct` to not block CDI entirely from initializing.

* Update dependency io.prometheus:prometheus-metrics-exporter-servlet-jakarta to v1.4.2 (apache#2929)

* Build-logic: `GitInfo` refactor (apache#2908)

Allows use of `GitInfo` for other use cases than just Jar manifest attributes.
SBOM generation will be another use case for Git information.

* Memoize ASF project information (apache#2909)

Information included in Polaris publications pulls some information about the project from ASF project metadata sources (Whimsey).
This information is currently only used when generating Maven poms, but will also be needed in SBOMs.

This change adds a new, memoized `AsfProject` information object, which holds the project infromation from Whimsey.

* Build: Simplify signing + fix execution in polaris-distribution (apache#2906)

This change simplifies generation of non-publication artifacts by adding a function taking the task which outputs shall be signed. That function takes care of setting up the correct task dependencies and task execution.

Also fixes an issue that signing does not always happen when running `./gradlew :polaris-distribution:assemble`, because the task dependency graph for the archive tasks and the corresponding signing tasks isn't properly set up.

* Proposed Test Fix (apache#2936)

Co-authored-by: Travis Michael Bowen <[email protected]>

* Update docker.io/prom/prometheus Docker tag to v3.7.3 (apache#2944)

* Update Quarkus Platform and Group to v3.29.0 (apache#2934)

* Update Gradle to v9.2.0 (apache#2938)

Co-authored-by: Robert Stupp <[email protected]>

* Update dependency openapi-generator-cli to v7.17.0 (apache#2940)

* Implement OpaPolarisAuthorizer (apache#2680)

* Update dependency com.github.ben-manes.caffeine:caffeine to v3.2.3 (apache#2923)

* Prefer PolarisPrincipal.getRoles in Resolver (apache#2925)

it should be sufficient to rely on `SecurityContext.getUserPrincipal`
alone, we dont need to call `isUserInRole` explicitly.

note due to the `ResolverTest` testing with non-existent roles we have
to add null-filtering to the `Resolver`.

* Move `nodeids` to `nosql` package parent (apache#2931)

Following up on apache#2728 this change moves "nodeids" code to the
`org.apache.polaris.persistence.nosql.nodeids` package.

* Update actions/stale digest to 39bea7d (apache#2950)

* Update dependency org.junit:junit-bom to v5.14.1 (apache#2951)

* docs(2843): Add documentation around Polaris-Tools (apache#2946)

* Add documentation around Polaris-Tools
* Related to apache#2843

* Add getting started with Apache Ozone (apache#2853)

* Add getting started with Apache Ozone

Use Apache Ozone as an example S3 impl. that does not have STS.

* fix typo in MinIO readme

* Update dependency com.azure:azure-sdk-bom to v1.3.0 (apache#2754)

* docs: add feature configuration section to Hive federation guide (apache#2952)

Add documentation for required feature flags when enabling
Hive Metastore federation. Users must configure three properties
in `application.properties` before Hive federation will work:

- `SUPPORTED_CATALOG_CONNECTION_TYPES`
- `SUPPORTED_EXTERNAL_CATALOG_AUTHENTICATION_TYPES`
- `ENABLE_CATALOG_FEDERATION`

Inspired from [this](https://apache-polaris.slack.com/archives/C084XDM50CB/p1761851426511259) Slack thread.

* Change getting-start docker file to use official spark image from outdated jupyter image (apache#2943)

* Use official spark image

* Use official spark image

* Use official spark image

* Use official spark image

* Use official spark image

* Use Iterable for realms in BootstrapCommand (apache#2956)

* Simplify digest generation (apache#2907)

Similarly to the change to simplify artifact signing, this change simplifies digest generation by introducing a function to digest the output files of any task. That function takes care of setting up the correct task dependencies and task execution.

Also removes an unnecessary double buffering during digest generation.

* Build: `GitInfo` function to build a raw github content URL (apache#2910)

* NoSQL: nodeids renames

* NoSQL: Update test for Caffeine 3.2.3

The read of `Eviction` properties is "just" a volatile read since Caffeine 3.2.3 and trigger cleanups asynchronously. Before 3.2.3, cleanups happened synchronously.  This change breaks the initially present assertions of this test, but not the functionality of the production code.

See ben-manes/caffeine#1897
