Meeting Details

Attendees: Pike, laura, peterbe
Elastic Search (log files)?
- can dump from files to ES
- can read from ES (and files)
- might need to upgrade twisted version (8.2.0 -> 10+)
- 1. Dump existing files into ES
- 2. Cron-dump-update log files from disk to ES
- 3. Make buildbot write directly to ES (potentially queued on FS till the get moved to ES)
- 4. Get rid of all dependencies (elmo & buildbot) on files
- Ask metrics,
  - if ES is ready to use?
  - indexes right?
  - amount of details set in docs right?
New Design
- Sandstone
  - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=748781
  - http://www.mozilla.org/b/en-US/sandstone/
  - Question: are we "allowed" to change the standard nav? (not the tabzilla drop-down)
- Jeff?
  - not for now
- Let's get started WITHOUT external CSS guru help
- ...but let's set a time limit
Migrations
- getting our VM in the right home
Deployment
- Deployment from Github (security)?
  - github as good as any other repo
- rewrite our update script
  - update_site.py script that rolls 1 commit (and its 1 (optional) migration) at a time
  - how often is this a problem?: not frequent
- simpler solution: upgrade update_site.py to take an optional parameter of git commit ID so it becomes possible to deploy a specific version.
Arecibo
- waiting for https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749375
- Once we upgrade playdoh-lib we'll become agnostic to whichever service is used to collect exceptions
