Notes

• Google Analytics
• • Core analytics is changing in 2023
• • Analogous to what they are doing now - may have to set up new account to register things
• • Likely we have to re-set up monitoring particular buttons
• • Will be a little work, but nothing significant

Heap Size adjustments

ICT backups less fragile Two issues

• IF instance is rebooted it drops VPN network and won't come back same IP (and we have expected this will be the same IP address)
• • solved this through persisting IP table rules
• Persistent IP address
• • Still working

Resolving Terraform configuration drift

• There was a strange incident with a certificate (TF couldn't find the cert in state - but it was there)

Planning to dockerize terraform in future

• Improves bus factor
• Reduces local dependencies needed to get QDR config

With architecture of Dataverse to have a react front end - (one page app) we may move to OIDC ... OIDC - an oauth like protocol - could have shibboleth - may enable SSO across apps without intermediary like Shib (via KeyCloak)

JIM

• Exports are rolling back right now - minor fix in place
• Two things breaking - s3 credentials lost; 408 response from Dataverse (which is that server got impatient)
• No root cause analysis for large datasets

To do:

• Seba - we have Password for decrypting the backups but don't know where to apply this...
