| mobrovac added a project: Dependency-Tracking. mobrovac added a comment. |
Essentially, we are talking here about dependency tracking for WikiBase/WikiData. We do need a larger solution to the dependency tracking problem all over our infrastructure, with WB/WD being the pathological case. At some point we will start seriously tackling that problem, but until we do, it makes perfect sense to me to have the constraints stored permanently.
I see certain questions that need to be resolved before any movement can be made on this front, such as:
- will we store data only for the latest revision or not (implies different storage semantics and guarantees)
- how will we detect key/value pairs that need to be invalidated (possibly efficiently)
- do we benefit from having a multi-DC storage solution for this
There are probably more detailed questions that lurk there too. Given all of the above, yes, I think it would be good to have an RfC written up that explores these questions.
