Hello again,
This is the weekly update from the Search Platform team for the week
starting 2019-02-11.

As always, feedback and questions welcome.

== Discussions ==

=== Search ===
* Stas and Trey worked on creating a textcat package to deploy [0]
* Mathew and Gehel collaborated on creating an Icinga check for failed
shard allocation [1]
* Search, SRE, and WMCS created a cloudelastic-root group that refines
certain access to the search clusters [2]
* Erik ran Wikidata entity autocomplete AB test on de, fr, es wikis.
The testing proved to be good, and the new wbsearchentities profiles
have been deployed [3]
* Erik worked to create a metastore if it is missing from
indexNamespaces.php (installs were failing while running
updateSearchIndexConfig.php) [4]
* David reworked how source_regex timeout is done in Cirrus (to limit
the source_regex query from consuming all the cluster resources) [5]
* David also confirmed that the ApiFeatureUsage still works with
ElasticSearch 6.5.4 [6]
* Erik noted that as production search indicies are now split across
three clusters per datacenter, mwgrep needs to be able to query
multiple ElasticSearch clusters [7]
* Erik ensured that the mjolnir daemons will work seamlessly with
ElasticSearch 5 or 6 [8]
* Trey and David ensured that the Elastic language analysis
components, our internal components, and third-party components are
all working as expected in ElasticSearch 6 [9]
