Deployments
This page tracks upcoming deployments of software to the Wikimedia Foundation servers.
Getting started
Ensure you joined the #wikimedia-operations connect IRC channel as all deployment-related communications happen there.
If you need help, contact Release Engineering on IRC at #wikimedia-releng connect; and ping Tyler (thcipriani).
- MediaWiki is deployed weekly through the Deployment Train. Other services follow their own schedule.
- Times are pinned to San Francisco, thus the UTC time changes in March and November per DST.
- Prefer regular Backport windows over adding new windows. To request deployment of a config change or backport, add your username and Gerrit URL to one of the backport windows on this page. You must be online in #wikimedia-operations on IRC during your deployment and install WikimediaDebug ahead of time. The #wikimedia-operations channel requires you to register your nickname before you can join.
- Tasks that meet Inclusion criteria require their own windows, which includes long-running tasks. Schedule more time than you think you need to account for delays and set backs, we recommend one hour for most tasks.
- To create or modify a recurring deploy window, send a patchset to deployments-calendar.yaml file in
repos/releng/release.git. - Announce changes to the ops mailing list ahead of time if they are likely to affect HTTP caching, introduce new cookies, or utilize new database tables.
- Announce deployments of major features to the community via Tech News and/or via other Product communication channels.
- To create or modify a recurring deploy window, send a patchset to deployments-calendar.yaml file in
- Something went wrong? See Incident response. Is there a user-impacting problem? Communicate in the #wikimedia-operations connect IRC channel. If there is a Phabricator task, ensure #Wikimedia-Incident is tagged, and consider setting the Unbreak Now priority.
wikimedia.org_rudis09ii2mm5fk4hgdjeh1u64@group.calendar.google.com.This may not include one-off windows. If there are differences, then the wiki page is canonical and correct.
