Org Data Migration: Performance testing for ci_job_artifact_states deletion during organization migration
🎯 Objective
Validate whether ci_job_artifact_states requires a sharding key for performant organization data deletion.
📋 Tasks
- Figure out what a deletion for organization's data would look like-- an SRE running a script post-org-migration? Organization deletion is implemented in the GitLab application? Loose foreign key mechanism handles async deletion, when
ci_job_artifactsrows are deleted? - Write a representative query which would end up deleting an organization's data in
ci_job_artifact_states - If that query might be slow, then continue
- Bulk insert representative test data into
ci_job_artifact_statesusing Database Lab - Analyze query plan with bulk inserted data
- Document findings and recommendation
📊 Success Criteria
Answer whether sharding key is needed for #566411. If it is needed, then we should have a clear statement of why it is needed.
