New hosting design

This is an OpenPGP/MIME signed message (RFC 2440 and 3156) --------------enigD0093A10176C442AC60DA5D2 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable This email is to kick-off the discussion about how we want to design our new hosting. Presuming the following: * 2 servers at AlterWay * 2 servers at RackSpace * Both bare metal * Each machine with 4 to 8 cores, 8 to 16 GB How do we want to layout services, interactions, backup, etc.? Ideas/points: * Migrate Mailman first - easy, crucial, gets jammed up on full Linode * On top of the base OS, how many VMs do we want? ** Does Jenkins master want to own the entire box? Figuring yes ... ** Second host, which could be running Gerrit eventually, do we want that partitioned in to VMs? Or does Gerrit want the entire box? Figuring no ... *** Gerrit gets 50% of resources in one VM *** Remaining resources go to host OS and 1 to 4 VMs(?) **** Mailman goes on one of those remaining VMs * Do we need a separate database? ** Does Jenkins or Gerrit use a db? ** We could have a VM running a db on a private network ... We talked in IRC about having one or more hacking sprints to do Infra work over the coming holiday breaks: * 26th * 29th * 30th Any of those work for people? Other suggestions?
