Sprint 37 update

  • Quickstart under review
  • Cauth annotations for internal SSO under review
  • go-client update in progress, with good progress
  • Discussed targeting 1.1 release before break
    • Quickstart + internal SSO
    • Splitting of UI
    • Update data page to include NBI quickstart link
  • 2.0 release
    • Terraform
    • Kubernetes 1.8 upgrade + technical debt
    • Globus auth
  • MDF prototype planned
  • Other issues:
    • Jetstream outage since 12/7 – ETK instance is offline and no ETA on fix
    • SGI webinar on 12/13
    • Cybertraining NSF proposal


Sprint 38 planning

  • Focus: 2.0 features
    • Kubernetes 1.8 + Terraform + Calico + Security policies
    • Technical debt (unit/integration testing, refactoring)
    • Globus auth
    • Catalog redesign
    • Gluster security problem  +Security policies
    • Multiple Workbench instances in one K8s
    • etcd > Mongo
  • Other data links
    • MHD – requires exposing the data, which is complicated
    • TERRA-REF – requires upgrading the TERRA-REF workbench, which would be good
    • Carma would require exposing the data
    • MDF - requires forge environment

Discussion of multi-zone/federation

  • Kubernetes federation or application-level federation
  • Data synchronization
    • Treat backup differently
    • Gluster can synchronzie
  • Federation vs failover
  • Robust external loadbalancer


Discussion of training vs DataDNS:

  • TAC was positive on continued work toward DataDNS vision
  • However, recent NSF proposals have focused more on training/education capability
    • Is there someone we can talk to?


Other considerations:

  • Landing page
  • Sphinx/Jekyll for consistent documentation. WT + CiS are adopting Sphinx
  • Status and outage information
  • Do we need integration with JIRA
  • Gonzo/Monitoring


  • No labels
