Hi, all.
The FlaggedRevs lab site mysteriously got better, which makes me
nervous. To counteract that, I'd like to put together some basic smoke
and load tests. My plan is to do that on Amazon's cloud infrastructure.
A few questions:
1. Does anybody have an AMI (basically, a virtual machine config)
that's already like WMF production servers?
2. If not, is there something like a Puppet config that I can use to
help build the AMI?
3. What's the best way for me to find out details on production
server configs? I see the info in Special:Version, but I'm
wondering a) where to find those packages, and b) if there are
other requirements (e.g., particular kernel versions, supporting
software, etc)?
Once I get the AMI working, I'll post details here so others can easily
spin up pseudo-production boxes.
