CPE ARC TEAM

(Community Platform Engineering Advanced Reconnaissance Team....Team)
We have a new sub team in our team, led by Pingou, who are running
advance investigations on some of the tech debt and bigger initiatives
that the CPE team have in our backlog and they have been tackling
Datanomer/Datagrepper tech debt first.
The team have been partitioning the ‘messages’ table of datagrepper's
DB, & hope to be able to test this setup next week
* prod like in openshift
https://datagrepper-monitor-dashboard.app.os.fedoraproject.org
* prod like with a default delta of 3 days
http://datagrepper.arc.fedorainfracloud.org/datagrepper/
* partitioned table + default delta of 3 days
http://datagrepper-test.arc.fedorainfracloud.org/datagrepper/
* using the timescale postgresql plugin [not implemented yet]
http://datagrepper-timescale.arc.fedorainfracloud.org

Noggin/AAA

* We faced some issues with IPA limits and tuning, and 2FA & still
trying to figure out the best way to enforce 2FA with sudo.
* We are getting closer to migrating from stg to prod and once the
Fedora migration is complete, the CentOS accounts will be then
imported.
* NOTE: If you have an account in both CentOS & Fedora and have
different email addresses associated with each, please update your
preferred email address in your profile and look out for an email next

Team Info

Background:

The Community Platform Engineering group, or CPE for short, is the Red
Hat team combining IT and release engineering from Fedora and CentOS.
Our goal is to keep core servers and services running and maintained,
build releases, and other strategic tasks that need more dedicated
time than volunteers can give.

See our wiki page here for more
information: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/cpe/

As always, feedback is welcome, and we will continue to look at ways
to improve the delivery and readability of this weekly report.

Have a great weekend!

Aoife
