TL;DR - Please test https://superset-next.wikimedia.org
and let us know of any problems. Thanks.
Hello,
This message is specifically addressed to any users of superset.wikimedia.org.
We in the Data Platform SRE team would be grateful for your
assistance in the acceptance testing phase of an upgrade to
Superset, please. Our production Superset instance is currently
running version 1.5.3, but superset-next.wikimedia.org
has now been upgraded to version 3.1.0 and is ready for
testing. Its database was copied from the production instance
yesterday, so it is relatively fresh.
If you could spend a little time reviewing whether your
dashboards, charts, dataset, and SQL queries etc. work properly,
that would be really helpful. There are lots of changes between
the 1.5 and 3.1 releases, so please feel free to read through the
following release notes, where the highlights are listed.
One particular point of note in the latest upgrade is that a viz migrations CLI tool has been added, which can help migrate legacy (Area, Bubble, Line, and Sunburst) chart types to the newer ECharts based versions. Please let us know if this tool would be of interest to you and we can look at running it on your behalf.
Once we assess feedback from users of superset-next, we will be able to schedule a date for the upgrade of the production instance. All things being well, we would hope to do this upgrade within a week or two.
Feel free to share any feedback or queries about this upgrade in the #data-engineering-collab Slack channel, or the #wikimedia-analytics IRC channel, or any of the mailing lists where you read this, or simply by reply if you prefer.
Kind regards,
Ben
