Add Geo OKR's for 2018 Q4

Rachel Nienaber requested to merge rnienaber-geo-okr into master

OKR's for the Engineering Department are due on Friday.

These are the OKR's that I am proposing and welcome your thoughts before merge.

  • At least one team member to advance from Geo Reviewer to Geo Maintainer ()

We have a bottleneck at the moment with only Douglas and Stan being Geo Maintainers. Stan has many responsibilities and Douglas is the only team member with Maintainer rights. We need to have another Maintainer to share the load.

  • Complete the rollout of Hashed Storage for gitlab.com ()

We are very close to having this completed. I am hoping that by setting this as an OKR we can push this to completion and get the benefit of all of this work in production.

  • Support Production Team's efforts to use Geo in the design and implementation of an HA and DR strategy. ()

I'm not yet satisfied with the wording of this OKR, but I want to open the MR up for discussion before it gets too close to Friday. The general idea behind this OKR is that we should be supporting the Production Team's efforts to design and implement an HA/DR strategy. I don't want to commit to having Geo running on gitlab.com by 2018 Q4 because we have to work within the Production Team's plans for DR. Geo is part of that plan, and might only fit in 2019 Q1.
