Agenda

Go over status of SSL - FOSS4G2018

From last meeting:

  • Website code: https://github.com/foss4g2018/foss4g2018
  • The code for the payments is also very simple HTML - we'd be happy to host in a single point
    • 3rd party payment service: Pesapal
  • post-meeting. To be moved to webextra, with ssl in front
    • merge them and have the payment site be something like https:/2018.foss4g.org/registration
    • ragnvald: https://github.com/timlinux/foss4g2018
    • Ensure we have continuity within our payment systems

Migration off old hard-ware AND Virtualization, Containerization, or None =

From last meeting

Migration

  • Alex: needs feedback on the questions about direction we want to go
  • Decide on virtualization method or container method I can narrow it down
  • Provide some mailing list time for modification suggestions, before a vote
  • Concerning virtualization method: Who's going to maintain that one ?
  • MartinSpott: I just don't want - again - get into a position to maintain KVM
  • strk: I've no experience with libvirt/ganeti/openstack
  • wildintellect: KVM itself is packaged
  • proposal: the one who decides in favour of a particular technique signs responsibility for maintaining it
  • what do we need to decide today ?
    • if the new hardware will be virtualization based or container based, or neither

Virtualization

  • We need to decide about Virtualization and Containerization plans.
  • OSGeo6 was made without either in part because updating 4 OS was a lot of work.
  • Hardware is somewhat dependent on the solution. Ganeti or Openstack expect lots of cheap machines (3+) to work well. Redundancy is across machines instead of within machine.
  • It should be noted in all virtualization cases we plan to use KVM with LVM based images - Ganeti/Openstack/Libvirt are a management layer on top.
    • Hardware Option 1-3 $3000-$7500, Hardware Option 4 $6300
      • It's hard to find a dual cpu or high core count in a smaller case. So the more expensive systems could be less if we opt to not fill the drive slots. However we do need space for the foss4g archive and the downloads. So maybe a mix of SSD and Spinning...
      • Option 4 based on a mix of SSD and Spinning disks for large and fast storage. Downloads can be handled by spinning SATA.
    • Hosting Option: OSUOSL - VM of our choosing just like other cloud services.
    • Hosting Option: Other
