Max,
I imagine Neta was asking for analytics-store access, so not /really/ the production cluster ;p. But, yes: generally-speaking "I need access to some data for...something", is not likely to lead to access to dbs containing sensitive information.On 24 December 2014 at 10:28, Max Semenik <maxsem.wiki@gmail.com> wrote:Access to production cluster, especially to databases that contain all kinds of user information, is an extremely big deal, so it's unlikely that this is going to happen, especially for a small one-time project.--On Wed, Dec 24, 2014 at 7:19 AM, Neta Livneh <neta.livneh@gmail.com> wrote:Thanks guys, I filed a request.I think I will be working constantly with the database so it will require shell access.Actually, this is a great opportunity to say that I would love to get you guys involved or at least hear insights from the analytics team regarding the project's direction.

It sounds like the redacted labs databases would nicely fit your use
case. The easiest way to get access there is to apply for Tool Labs [1].
To get access, please file a request through
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:FormEdit/Tools_Access_Request
(Many parts around the WMF are currently getting migrated to
phabricator.wikimedia.org, so if someone knows a phabricator procedure
for that please chime in!)
Once you've got Tool Labs [1] access you can ssh to
tools-login.wmflabs.org
and running
sql enwiki
on that host connects you to labsdb's enwiki database and you can run
your queries there (similar for other wikis).
Have fun,
Christian
