Hello everyone, it's a great honor to be invited by the community to become a Committer of the Apache HertzBeat project.

Self-Introduction

I have been engaged in Java backend development since 2022. Currently, I am working as a backend developer in a company and also taking on some operations and maintenance tasks.

Getting to know Apache HertzBeat

Last year, I came across the Apache HertzBeat project by chance. After reading the documentation, I found that this monitoring tool is easy to use, does not require an Agent, and can be operated entirely through a web page. So, I quickly set it up within the company based on Docker and put it into use.

Due to the All in one design architecture of Apache HertzBeat, it has greatly reduced my mental burden, and I was able to quickly integrate various internal company services into the monitoring system.

Participate and Contribute

During the usage process, I discovered a database query bug. So, I forked the code and started debugging it locally. I found that the fix was not complicated and since no one else had addressed it, I submitted my first PR. To my surprise, it was merged quickly, which greatly encouraged me.

In the following period, I continued to familiarize myself with the Apache HertzBeat code, paying close attention to ISSUES and PRs. As my understanding of the system deepened, apart from fixing BUGs and improving documentation, I also developed some new features, such as database storage templates and SSH tunnels.

Conclusion

I'm deeply grateful to @tomsun28 for inviting me to become a committer for this project. I also want to thank other members of the community for assisting me in reviewing code and providing invaluable help. Apache Hertzbeat boasts a highly active community, and I sincerely hope more people will join and contribute to it, Finally, I wish Apache HertzBeat can graduate from the incubator soon!
