--- Comment #3 from Dan Andreescu <dandree...@wikimedia.org> ---
I never commented on this!  Sorry.  Ok, so as Toby mentions, we talked this
over with Ops and Labs folks.  We decided that as long as we had a decent
backup strategy in place, Labs would be a fine place to host Wikimetrics.  Our
backup strategy:

1. we back up report results using features built into Redis
2. we back up wikimetrics metadata (users, cohorts, etc.) daily using a simple
cron

Possible improvements:

 - increase frequency of wikimetrics database backup
 - have the team review the Redis configuration
 - perform a recover after a simulated failure


Users should keep copies of anything they absolutely never want to lose, but
that's true of any website out there (gmail, facebook, etc.).  So while we
can't go to the lengths that google or facebook go to, we try as much as
possible to keep your data safe.  And the Labs team has our back, they think
most problems will get addressed quickly.
