Subject: [Wikitech-l] Proposed timeline for remaining Cirrus/Elastic rollout
To: Wikimedia developers <wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org>


All,

New hardware is in place and we've got plenty of breathing room to wrap up
the migration to
the new search engine. The only wikis not already on it are: frwiki,
zhwiki, dewiki and enwiki.

We're planning to switch frwiki next Wednesday, Nov. 5th.

If all goes well with that, I'd like us to do zhwiki the following Monday,
Nov 10th.
Then if things are still ok, let's do dewiki on Wednesday, Nov 12th.

I think we'll be fine at this point and then we can talk about a proposed
date for enwiki by the
end of November.

Of course this is all tentative on us throwing more load at Elasticsearch
and it continuing to
behave well. But that's why we got more hardware ;-)

As always: I thank the many *many* beta testers we've had throughout this
process. Your
feedback has been invaluable. Feedback is still welcome and appreciated
even as we get
into the home stretch too...please file bugs or find us on IRC if something
just isn't right.

I already left notice on frwiki's bistro yesterday, will do the same for
zhwiki and dewiki today.
If someone could forward this to wikitech-ambassadors for me, I'd be
grateful.

-Chad
