Migrate to and read from new store for property terms
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

  • first run on test wikidata
  • then on production

The migration will go through 4 stages:

  • stage 1: data is moved from old to the new table
  • stage 2: reading still happens from the old table and writing happens on both (we write twice) + run migration scripts
  • stage 3: writing to both + reading only from the new one. In case of problems, we will still have the two tables synced.
  • stage 4: switch everything to the new table. The old table will stay there, idle, with the last state but the data won't change again, since the writing will only happen on the new table now.

The scripts already exist.

We will have to test after every stage whether everything/wikidata works as expected.

Couple of thousands of properties with their aliases.

Addshore triaged this task as Medium priority.Jan 14 2020, 4:17 PM

As of 1.35.0-wmf.15 we believe we can stop writing to properties now.
Some notes about why we are ready for wikidata org can be found in P10163 (we cant change the default for wikibase until a few more things happen.

This will need a re announcement to stop writing to wb_terms for properties.

T243944 identified more holes, and also more holes in properties, so this migration stage will also have to be run once more / have things manually fixed
I'll do that as @Ladsgroup is going on vacation!

Checking this again today it appears there might still be one situation that is causing issue that we should investigate.
