Join the Hazelcast Community
There are many ways to get involved with our projects.
Participate
Inform
We rely on our community to help us uncover bugs or other issues. You can raise these in Github Issues for the relevant project. For example, you can raise Hazelcast IMDG issues here. The community provides bug fixes on a regular basis, and these are always welcome.
Contribute
There are 2 major releases of Hazelcast IMDG per year. The community plays an important role in shaping the roadmap. We promote upcoming features on the Github Wiki page, and the community discusses larger feature requests via Hazelcast Enhancement Proposals.
Promote
Community members can promote the project and the benefits of Hazelcast in their applications via blog posts, social media, and in-person talks at conferences or local user groups. For most talks, we can usually provide some items such as t-shirts, laptop stickers, pins, or books.
Forums
Ask, answer, and contribute.
Google Groups
Hazelcast engineers and many other community members monitor this forum. It’s usually the best place to get your questions answered. We make general project announcements here as well.
