Who's here: Alexandros, Giuseppe, Jean-René, Marko, Mukunda, Tyler, Antoine, Dan

Last Time

• Discussed Pearson Deployment Pipeline how it works
  • tl;dr: most of the magic is in their Docker container. Lots of good ideas, not a lot of good implementation

• ci-staging k8s
  • ci-staging-k8s-master: etcd, docker registry, api server, scheduler, controller
  • ci-staging-k8s-node01: kubelet, proxy

• Need for some way to evaluate PoC

Topics

ci-staging-k8s next steps

• k8s plugins for jenkins
• k8s slaves

Binary Evaluation Criteria

• Supposed to be simple/not final
• Broad strokes of various approaches
• of course it's a google doc

Next quarter cooperation

• RelEng: Build, promotion/tagging to staging in a basic way (ops + service requirements into account)
  • look at helm for deployment

• ops will help in building the "staging/beta" k8s cluster for integration with deployment-prep

• message pass up / quick standup
• sprint board!

For next time

• Solidfy the quartly goal for releng

As Always

• Release Pipeline Workboard
• Meeting notes
