Rename this project to `opensearch-extensions` or `opensearch-extensions-java`

[peternied]

This project is named opensearch-sdk and that name is pretty broad, while this is an OpenSearch specific repository, it seems to be focused on an extensibility sdk based on the content in the readme.

In the future there might be rust/go/node/... extensions software development kits to help make extensions more easily which would be named opensearch-extensions-rs

What do you guys think?

[dbwiddis]

The extension points should be language agnostic. It shouldn't matter what language an extension is written in, if it follows the appropriate API. I think naming it "extensions" actually gives the impression that the extensions themselves would be developed in this project.

I agree sdk is a bit too vague, though. What about opensearch-extension-sdk or opensearch-plugin-sdk?

[peternied]

I like opensearch-plugin-sdk +1 for that name.

The extension points should be language agnostic.

While the extensions interface is via Rest API, there could be SDKs available in many different language implementations, such as how there are many OpenSearch client implementations in other programming languages.

I am fine with opensearch-extension-sdk as it briefly describes sdk for extensibility. In the future, we will be supporting SDK with other languages, for which we can name them as opensearch-extension-sdk-rs, opensearch-extension-sdk-js etc. It'll be great to hear from @dblock and @saratvemulapalli on the same.

[dblock]

This is a very valid point. I think I'd like openearch-sdk-java the best. We're not going to have a million SDKs, and this is Java-specific?

[peternied]

This issue has been a little stagnate, do one of the maintainers want to drive this rename or call it off?

[saratvemulapalli]

I am not really torn as long its named sdk.
I see we have a bunch of options:

• opensearch-extensions
• opensearch-extensions-java
• openearch-sdk-java
• opensearch-extension-sdk

If i have to choose I'll go with opensearch-sdk-java.
Folks put in your vote and lets take a call in 2 weeks. (Aug 12)
