[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (SWSQE-732) Migrate Off Of The Blade Center

Migrate Off Of The Blade Center ------------------------------- Key: SWSQE-732 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SWSQE-732 Project: Kiali QE Issue Type: Story Reporter: Matthew Mahoney Priority: Critical Labels: infrastructure Background information causing this Jira: https://projects.engineering.redhat.com/browse/MWQEINFRA-720 Embrace 2019 MW QE infrastructure vision During the QE camp, we (MW infrastructure folks) were approached by DevOps lead architect sharing their interests around evolving MW QE infrastructure in Boston for upcoming years. I would like to reiterate what was suggested to keep MW QE part of the conversation. Where we are? Boston hardware lab is going to be consolidated into 3rd party collocation center within a year or so. Nontrivial outage is expected because of that. Current MW QE hardware in Boston is getting underutilized as majority of workload was moved to central CI. Baremetal systems (exotic architectures, performance labs, messaging labs) are getting obsolete and unreliable.
