Search before asking

• I had searched in the issues and found no similar feature requirement.

Description

With the expected release date of BanyanDB 0.6, which is the first complete-feature version for it, and SkyWalking with UI are stable enough. So, I think, it is time.

We could have a curl and go scrip, such as curl -sSL https://skywalking.apache.org/quickstart.sh | bash -s. This should actually pick the latest release(not alpha/beta/rc) from Maven Central, https://central.sonatype.com/artifact/org.apache.skywalking/server-starter

@hanahmily Could you propose what is recommended for the version of BanyanDB? We could hard coded for now, until you have a better solution.

[hanahmily]

From my perspective, BanyanDB 0.6 will be a proper release for this combination.

Is there a recommended version for this script? After 0.6, should be pick the latest stable release? Or, we should lock the version to avoid uncertain breaks?

@mrproliu I think the timeline of BanyanDB fits the expectation to deliver this on v10. @hanahmily shared with me, the database 0.6 is ready on early March. Then we could build this and showcase/demo are expected to update as well.

@mrproliu I have re-assigned this to @kezhenxu94 as BanyanDB is reaching release. I hope this could be ready before that.
FYI @hanahmily

We have a quick start for docker-compose here https://github.com/apache/skywalking/tree/master/docker#quickstart , what do you think if we adjust that to make it possible to use either BanyanDB or ElasticSearch? Adding a dedicated script to start in non-Docker sounds an unnecessary maintaining workload, WDYT @wu-sheng

That version is good. Besides code details, I want to add a OAP and BanyanDB version-locked distro and host that on skywalking.a.o, mostly to avoid GitHub download block and help people to login on our website.

The expected workflow is curl -sSL https://skywalking.apache.org/quickstart.sh | bash -s. That is the proposal. Feel free to use existing resources.
