Agenda

  • Updates

Minutes

  • CircleCI engineering solutions team meeting happening at 2pm easetern today.

    • IBM is looking at CircleCI as a possible long term solution.

    • Short term solution is to move minions off to AWS or something similar.

    • Questions:

      • Can we make gerrit work with circleci?

      • Who pays to develop an integration solution?

  • Kubernetes report

    • Using OpenStack now to create disposable VMs

    • Questions

      • Can we get OpenStack to orchestrate on a k8s cluster as well as VMs.

  • Sawtooth is still interested in raw AWS resources.

    • Using Jenkins for doing CI on their own hardware.

  • Where are we on the report?

    • We should report out on the top two options and make it clear that no one solution is good.

      • Option one: pick one CI platform as standard and force everybody to migrate.

        • Does the TSC enforce this?

        • Engineering cost of migrating could be significant.

      • Option two: secure a pool of bare cloud resources and divide it among the teams.

        • Test nets are expensive and should probably be its own budget line item.

        • We can ask cloud providers to donate resource for this.
