[Gluster-infra] Rackspace and Gluster
Hi, so Rackspace decided to stop their OSS Funding program 2 days ago [1]. For people not aware of it, Rackspace was funding various OSS projects with 2000 US$ worth of credit per month, which we used to run various systems (whose list is too long to be listed here). Thanks to them for the fish and the support all theses year, and their help was really appreciated to grow the project. But we now have to do something before the 31th of December, after that then we would have to pay for the infra. Nigel did started to work yesterday on a spreadsheet for budget planning in case we do not hit the target, and I did accelerate the move of infra that was already under way. We are still in the planning phase and since I was on PTO yesterday, we do not have a document ready to share, but we are working on it. And while we were slowly planning to move out of rackspace to be more resilient for this precise event anyway, 2 months is quite short and while I personally think we can do it (hopefully without breakage), this imply to focus on that, and that mean likely push some of the work we wanted to do this quarter for later. That also imply that if anyone need us, please be mindful until January of not adding unplanned work for us. IMHO, our challenges would be: - move the download server in a way that do not disrupt production (ideally, have a mirror, something we need since a long time). I already have some idea for that, and opened a bug on it: https://bugzil la.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1503529 - deal with the NetBSD VMs in a automated and scalable way (again, a long time open item). - scale the number of builders in the cage (e.g., start to use them for regression testing and not just source code building ) - move the lists server to the cage, in a way that do not disrupt communication. We have to take in account DNS propagation and stuff like this. The rest (moving munin, syslog, freeipa, cleaning old servers) are mostly internal details that shouldn't impact people, and was already on its way. And are IMHO also easier and more controlled, so I will focus on them for the time being.

We can offer a mirror for gluster at ftp.nluug.nl free of any charge It is reachable by ftp, rsync, http and https and connected with 10 Gb/s we mirror a lot of opensource projects and distributions our location is europe/amsterdam We offer download stats per month see: http://ftp.nluug.nl/.statistics/ For example the Ovirt project had 586873 hits and transferred a total of 540.211 Mb this month. We are a mirror server of a lot of opensource projects since 1998. Regards Mike Hulsman -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

So I received a email saying that Rackspace did miscommunicate and is not accepting new tenants in the OSS Funding program, but the existing ones will still be funded. I still plan to move some stuff out of Rackspace, but slowly. -- Michael Scherer Sysadmin, Community Infrastructure and Platform, OSAS signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ Gluster-infra mailing list Gluster-infra@gluster.org http://lists.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-infra
