<h2 id="Goal-of-this-Initiative2">
<a href="https://hackmd.io/laYkDHSuTm65kl0EwlGYHQ#Goal-of-this-Initiative2"></a>Goal of this Initiative</h2>



<p>The datanommer and datagrepper stacks are currently relying on fedmsg which<br>we want to deprecate.<br>These two applications need to be ported off fedmsg to fedora-messaging.<br>As these applications are ‘old-timers’ in the fedora infrastructure, we would<br>also like to look at optimizing the database or potentially redesigning it to<br>better suit the current infrastructure needs.<br>For a phase two, we would like to focus on a DB overhaul.</p>

<h2 id="Goal-of-this-Initiative3">
<a href="https://hackmd.io/laYkDHSuTm65kl0EwlGYHQ#Goal-of-this-Initiative3"></a>Goal of this Initiative</h2>



<p>Duffy is a system within CentOS CI Infra which allows tenants to provision and<br>access bare metal resources of multiple architectures for the purposes of<br>CI testing.<br>We need to add the ability to checkout VMs in CentOS CI in Duffy. We have<br>OpenNebula hypervisor available, and have started developing playbooks which<br>can be used to create VMs using the OpenNebula API, but due to the current state<br>of how Duffy is deployed, we are blocked with new dev work to add the<br>VM checkout functionality.</p>

<p>Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (or EPEL) is a Fedora Special Interest Group that creates, maintains, and manages a high quality set of additional packages for Enterprise Linux, including, but not limited to, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), CentOS and Scientific Linux (SL), Oracle Linux (OL).</p>



<p>EPEL packages are usually based on their Fedora counterparts and will never conflict with or replace packages in the base Enterprise Linux distributions. EPEL uses much of the same infrastructure as Fedora, including buildsystem, bugzilla instance, updates manager, mirror manager and more.</p>
