Service architecture by layers

Description of how the service is currently deployed.

Here is a general diagram of how things are:

Wikireplicas.png

Physical layer

This service is build on top of several physical servers:

  • labsdb1009.eqiad.wmnet
  • labsdb1010.eqiad.wmnet
  • labsdb1011.eqiad.wmnet

All servers are the same:

  • HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9
  • 16 CPU Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2637 v3 @ 3.50GHz
  • 500GB RAM
  • 1 hard-disc in /dev/sda with 11.7 TiB (probaby RAID, using hpsa kernel driver)
  • 4 x 1GB ethernet interfaces (tg3)

TODO:

  • isn't this information somewhere else?
  • no RAID status monitoring from userspace?

Storage layer

The service has a concrete storage configuration.

As seen by fdisk: 

% sudo fdisk -l

/dev/mapper/tank-data   12T  6.5T  5.2T  56% /srv

All 3 servers should have more or less the same storage configuration.

DB layer

The databases in this service have a concrete layout/configuration.

Higher layers

Such as applications running on top, proxies, caches, et al.

Puppet deployment

The cluster is currently deployed using operations/puppet.git.

All the servers are given the labs::db::replica role, which currently include:

  • standard configs
  • mariadb packages + configs
  • ferm firewall + rules to allow the cluster to inter-comm
  • deployment of scripts, like maintain-views and friends

From production to wiki-replicas

Wiki databases from production are copied and sanitized to serve wiki-replicas.

Admin guide

Docs to perform common tasks related to this service. As detailed as possible.

History

Before this new cluster, we had an old cluster composed of physical servers: labsdb1001, labsdb1002 and labsdb1003.

At the time of this writing, the last standing server is labsdb1003, which is going down in December 2017.
