Hi all, Here is a quick snapshot of some of the work delivered by the Community Platform Engineering team during the month of July. If you have trouble reading this in email format, feel free to visit the hackmd link where it is published https://hackmd.io/@Ap8CkTlpSfmjb44UGV-kWA/rkW5c8W1t ## Fedora ### Infrastructure & Release Engineering * Mass rebuild completed * Additional power8 boxes installed in one of the datacentres ### Scheduled Q3 Projects #### Datanomer/Datagrepper **About** These apps are currently used to retrieve historical information about messages on the fedmsg bus and add them to a postgresql database. Datanomer reads-in messages from the bus and stores them in the database and Datagrepper exposes the messages in the database via an API with different filtering capacities. We want to upgrade these applications to use fedora-messaging and increase the performance of the applications for users. Work Tracker: https://github.com/orgs/fedora-infra/projects/10 **Delivered in July** * Converted datanomer.consumer to use fedora-messaging * Timescaledb is deployed in staging * Vagrant setup created to help new contributors hack on datagrepper easier #### Metrics for Apps on Openshift **About** The project team will deliver on the installation of newest Openshift in Fedora infra to be then configured with prometheus so applications can be hooked into this service and can be monitored and metricized through this tech stack for more comprehensive understanding of app behaviour, performance and troubleshooting. Work Tracker: https://pagure.io/fedora-infra/metrics-for-apps/boards/metrics-for-apps **Delivered in July** * Bootstrap Openshift Install * Staging cluster of Openshift 4 up #### DNF Counting Project **About**: The DNF counting project will enhance the currently existing program that captures a ‘countme’ value from computers running Fedora weekly. There are multiple scripts running from a server which parses the data into a csv file for graphing and displaying trends that had been misbehaving a lot. This program gives a good indication for how many computers use fedora so the project team will work on improving these scripts and the program overall to make it a more reliable and maintainable solution. Work Tracker: https://pagure.io/mirrors-countme/boards/DNF%20Counting%20Initiative **Delivered in July**: * Zuul CI testing enabled * Added F34 stats * Improved the syncHttpLogs script so that it retries on failure and has a timeout and no longer hangs quietly for long periods of time ## CentOS ### Infrastructure & Release Engineering https://pagure.io/centos-infra/issues * New Automotive SIG set up complete * New Infra SIG member added - Mark O'Brien (IRC:mobrien) ### CentOS Linux * Kmod secure boot signing is now in place ### CentOS Stream #### Stream 8 * Legacy composeinfo is now being generated for every compose * Kernel-4.18.0-326.el8 has been exported to git.centos.org and pushed to the mirrors for CentOS Stream 8 #### Stream 9 * Daily composes now being generated for Stream 9 * Stream 9 composes now does ec2 and generic qcow2 images * Tooling identified for package signing automation Thank you for your continued support and collaboration with our team across all communities, the work we achieve is not possible without that, and I look forward to updating you all on what we have accomplished at the end of August!
