Description
Kickoff for the Distribution group for the GitLab 14.5 release.
Planning issue - https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/distribution/team-tasks/-/issues/944
A
A
We
will
work
on
any
tech
debt
if
there's
room
at
the
end
before
jumping
into
these
specific
product
priorities,
I
did
want
to
call
out
some
work
that
was
both
started
and
finished
in
14.5
that
I
didn't
bring
up
last
time.
We
did
a
research
spike
for
alternatives
for
centos
8
packages.
A
A
We
want
to
continue
working
down
our
list,
for
this
next
feature
release
a
couple,
notable
items
that
I've
also
mentioned
in
the
past
official
red
hat
certification.
You
know
enabling
true,
zero
downtime
upgrades
or,
I
should
say
near-
zero,
downtime
upgrades
and
distribution
with
operator
lifecycle
manager.
This
specific
item
is
related
as
well
to
the
official
red
hat
certification,
so
moving
into
specifically
the
red
hat
certification,
which
is
a
large
portion
of
the
work
that
we're
going
to
be
working
on
in
14.
A
6
is
kind
of
listed
here
on
the
certification
standards
that
we
need
to
go
through.
The
reason
why
we're
doing
this
is,
you
know
the
operator
meets
red
hat
standards
of
interoperability,
security
and
life
cycle
management
when
deployed
on
red
hat
open
shift.
So
this
is
important
because
red
hat
stands
behind
something
like
this,
and
we
know
users
find
importance
in
that.
A
So
we
want
to
you
know,
accomplish
this
certification
so
that
we
can
be
in
tune
with
red
hat,
so
one
of
the
items
related
to
that
is
testing
operations,
openshift
14.8
and
another
kind
of
item
that
is
not
directly
linked
to
the
official
red
head
certification,
but
another
place
where
we
do
want
to
list.
The
operator
is
in
operator
hub,
so
having
the
operator
officially
certified
will
hopefully
get
us
in
the
red
hat
marketplace
and
we
also
want
to
list
the
operator
in
operator
hub.
A
So
moving
on
to
distribution,
fips
compliance,
so
we've
been
working
on
this
for
a
couple
weeks
now
and
we'll
continue
working
on
this
with
a
couple
items,
one
might
remain
for
14.5
and
we
have
a
couple
items
already
listed
for
14.6,
so
we're
going
to
continue
working
towards
what
it
would
look
like
to
have
a
fips
compliant
omnibus
package
and
later
on,
we'll
you
know
we'll
work
on
cloud
native
but
related
to
our
s390
architecture,
support.
We
have
worked
on
and
completed
a
running
prototype
of
this
support.
A
A
One
of
the
items
that
is,
that
we're
waiting
on
with
this
and
the
first
piece
of
work
that
we'll
actually
work
on
is
you
know,
is
this
something
that
we
actually
want
to
move
forward
with
now
so
we'll
kind
of
scope
that,
but
you
know
once
if
we,
if
we
align
on
that,
we'll
we'll
move
forward
on
a
couple
of
these
next
steps.
A
Another
miscellaneous
item
that
I
did
want
to
bring
up
is
we're
going
to
build
for
sles
15.2
and
we've
got
two
documentation.
Items
that
I
did
want
to
bring
up.
One
is
documenting
near
zero,
downtime
postgres
major
upgrades
for
petroni
and
also
documenting
how
to
perform
a
multi-rails
node
gitlab
upgrade
with
downtime.
So
both
of
these
were
customer
requests
and
we
have
a
capability,
but
we
need
to
do
a
better
job
of
documenting
them.
A
So
hopefully,
all
this
stuff
will
be
great
value
ads
for
customers
and
we're
looking
forward
to
our
14.6
release.
Thank
you
very
much
and
have
a
great
day.
