This is the weekly update for the week starting 2019-03-18

Discussions

Search

• Nearly done with the upgrade to ElasticSearch v6:
  • Upgrade relforge to elasticsearch 6.5.4 [1]
  • Upgrade deployment-elastic* to 6.5.4 [2]
  • Build wmf-elasticsearch-search-plugins.deb that supports elastic 6.5.4 [3]
• There was a minor bug in not getting a search result for "garrett marquis" or "Garrett Marquis"; Erik investigated and found it was a minor html issue and corrected it. FYI, it will take ~8 weeks for all content across all wikis to be reindexed. [4]
• As part of the work done to separate the CirrusSearch/Elastic specific code from Wikibase code base, Stas deployed WikibaseCirrusSearch in production and all searches are now running through it [5]

WDQS

• New Release of Blazegraph (2.1.5) is announced. We have released 0.3.1 version of WDQS build with it. [6]
