noc.wikimedia.org

From Wikitech

noc.wikimedia.org provides public copies of our configuration files. This should not be confused with the noc at wikimedia dot org email address that goes to all of SRE.

You can use {{Config file|SomeFile}} in pages on this wiki to link to a config file in https://noc.wikimedia.org/conf.

Service

noc is now served from the "mw-misc" cluster in MediaWiki On Kubernetes.

For internal access, it may be queried directly with e.g. curl -s -H 'Host: noc.wikimedia.org' https://mw-misc.discovery.wmnet:30443/conf/dblists/open.dblist

Alternatively, mw-misc is available via port localhost:6508 when using the Service Proxy - See operations/puppet/+/1114383 for where this was added.

History

To learn about the creation of noc.wikimedia.org and earlier pre-2010 interations, see kohl.wikimedia.org.

In 2010, noc.wikimedia.org was served by the deployment server (at the time, fenari) as one of the virtual hosts co-located with the MediaWiki install for test.wikipedia.org. The noc site also used to serve public_html from personal home to serve ad-hoc files and data. These would later be moved to people.wikimedia.org.

By 2015, the noc.wikimedia.org and people.wikimedia.org sites were moved away from the deployment server to a dedicated maintenance server (at the time, terbium). The maintenance servers did not serve any MediaWiki sites, with the webserver serving only the noc app from the wmf-config repository as a mostly standalone web app.

By 2022, it became multi-dc aware, and served from the then-current maintenance servers mwmaint1002 (eqiad) and mwmaint2002 (codfw).

In 2023, the noc app was moved to a new "mw-misc" cluster in MediaWiki on Kubernetes (T341859).
