Hello folks,

I know a number of you have subscribed to the Dumps Rewrite project (
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/dumps-rewrite/) but I bet none of you
actually watch it or any of its tasks.  So here's a heads up.

I'm getting started on work on the job scheduler/workflow manager piece;
this would accept lists of dump tasks (in the current setup, "dump stubs
for el wikipedia"), call a callback to turn each of them into small jobs
that can be completed in less than an hour, submit and monitor these jobs
with retries, dependencies etc, call a callback to recombine the outputs of
the jobs, and notify some caller on success of te whole operation.

First up is evaluating existing packages and choosing one to use as a
foundation.  Please contribute!  See the following tasks:

https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T143205: Draft usage scenarios for
job/workflow manager <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T143205>
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T143206: List requirements needed for
task/job/workflow manager <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T143206>
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T143207: Evaluate software packages for
job/task/workflow management <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T143207>

Also, can someone please forward this on to analytics-l and research-l?
I'm not on those lists but they will no doubt have a lot of useful
expertise here.

Thanks!

Ariel
