All,
New hardware is in place and we've got plenty of breathing room to wrap up the migration to the new search engine. The only wikis not already on it are: frwiki, zhwiki, dewiki and enwiki.
We're planning to switch frwiki next Wednesday, Nov. 5th.
If all goes well with that, I'd like us to do zhwiki the following Monday, Nov 10th. Then if things are still ok, let's do dewiki on Wednesday, Nov 12th.
I think we'll be fine at this point and then we can talk about a proposed date for enwiki by the end of November.
Of course this is all tentative on us throwing more load at Elasticsearch and it continuing to behave well. But that's why we got more hardware ;-)
As always: I thank the many *many* beta testers we've had throughout this process. Your feedback has been invaluable. Feedback is still welcome and appreciated even as we get into the home stretch too...please file bugs or find us on IRC if something just isn't right.
I already left notice on frwiki's bistro yesterday, will do the same for zhwiki and dewiki today. If someone could forward this to wikitech-ambassadors for me, I'd be grateful.
