13.3 Planning

These are my thoughts for priorities in %13.3. I assume that all items scheduled for %13.2 were delivered; this is not going to be true. In areas where issues were not finished, please finish the work for %13.2 first before moving to these issues.

All issues listed are Deliverable (Total of 18 issues)

Build

Geo self service framework

Assumptions:

  • Package File Replication is done
  • We managed to merge all issues in gitlab-org&3109 (closed)
    • Update 2020-07-14 Replication for additional data types is likely to miss the release but should be finished early in 13.3. We should still be able to start making progress on Snippet replication.

Wrap up replication for additional blob types

Start working on Geo: Self Service Framework - Second Implementation for Snippet replication

Stretch goal is the rest of these items.

Testing PostgreSQL 12

Verify Geo install with PG12

Testing Patroni and Gitaly

Start working on gitlab-org&2536 (closed)

Upgrade Testing

If there is capacity after prioritizing the above testing, continue with upgrade testing and investigating zero-downtime issues.

Documentation improvements for (planned) failover:

Backfill operations

UI/UX Administrator improvements

@sunjungp may have delivered a new design for the Geo node overview, which Zack can work on.

Other than that there are frontend improvements possible for the SSF:

These issue may change a bit depending on the current discussion about how to approach REST/GraphQL for the Geo Status endpoint.

@sunjungp may work on Global search during that release.

Geo North Star

Validation

Assuming that we are getting to the end of gitlab-org&1507 (closed) we should organise internally to obtain the UMUX Lite score by the end of %13.4

Won't progress

As always, please leave feedback below or just 👍.
