Summary: Recreate the transactional CI mirrors with Pulp
Key: OVIRT-2034
URL: https://ovirt-jira.atlassian.net/browse/OVIRT-2034
Project: oVirt - virtualization made easy
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: CI Mirrors
Reporter: Barak Korren
Assignee: infra
Right now, the CI mirrors are created and maintained by a set of custom scripts and jobs.
It seems that [Pulp|https://pulpproject.org/] can do what our current system does. The reason behind not using it when we first made the mirrors system was out desire to provide a quick solution and avoid adding more services to maintain.
There are however, quite a few reasons to want to switch to pulp: # Aside from RPMs it can also manage other interesting kinds of resources like Containers, DEB packages and Python packages. # If it works well for us – we can maintain less code by dropping the existing mirror management code # It has built-in distribution mechanisms that can be useful to scale it up. # It seems it has support for assigning packages to multiple repos. This cab be used as a tagging mechanism to implement OVIRT-2033
