Today installing GitLab requires up to 13 different
buckets,
this adds a lot of friction to new installations as well as slowing
down feature adoption.
This issue was automatically tagged with the label groupdistribution by TanukiStan, a machine learning classification model, with a probability of 0.8.
If this label is incorrect, please tag this issue with the correct group label as well as automation:ml wrong to help me learn from my mistakes.
Requested by GitLab Premium customer as they've already migrated artifacts to a subdirectory in an existing bucket that's used for runner cache. GitLab team members can find out more in the ticket and SF.
@stanhu, @nolith - Hi! Is this groupdistribution ? I ask because it seems like there's back end changes needed, probably involving Workhorse, Fog and so on, in addition to support via configuration (such as Chef changes).
I can see the PM for groupdistribution prioritizing the latter, but not the former.
Deployments created prior to the consolidated object store configuration are allowed to use 1 bucket with separate folders, and those are blocked to get migrated onto the consolidated configuration due to this limitation. Premium customer affected.
