Ops
Deployment Requests
Hardware, Projects & Other
Mozilla IDP (aka. VinzClortho) (Benson)
What I worked on:
- Refactored/rewrote an improved CloudWatch backend for StatsD (https://github.com/mostlygeek/statsd-backend-cloudwatch)
- Completed StatsD+CloudWatch server (https://github.com/mostlygeek/statsd-with-cloudwatch)
- First stages of Moz-IDP deployment scripts (https://github.com/mozilla-services/mozilla-idp-deploy)
What I'm working on:
- Working on improving deployment of Moz-IDP scripts. ie: AMI creation. I may not do this and come back to it after Grand Unification Week. They are good enough, and I can deploy them to different regions quickly using CLI EC2 tools.
- Getting the Moz-IDP production systems up.
- Creating of ELB's for each region (for SSL termination)
- Creating Route53 settings to
- DNS latency based balancing of access
- DNS failover, turns off a region if it is having connectivity issues
Blockers:
- need the latest SL6.3 AMI in these regions:
- us-east-1
- us-west-1
- eu-west-1
- need Identity team to decide on hostname for service, ie: login.mozilla.org
- need SSL cert for that in ELB
- need DNS delegation for that to Route53 to the hostname: login-prod.allizomaws.com
- need monitoring and checks set up for that SSL cert
