The GeoLite2 files are available for the Beta Cluster, located in /user/share/GeoIP in deployment-deploy01.deployment-prep.eqiad1.wikimedia.cloud

I'd assume the full MaxMind files are not there due to licensing reasons.

Only the GeoLite2-City.mmdb and GeoLite2-Country.mmdb are there (GeoLite2-ASN.mmdb isn't present). They were added in 2018.

@CDanis Do you know if I'd be allowed to replace these files with the (perhaps) more up-to-date GeoLite2 files that we've been using in our local tests (https://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/geoip2/geolite2/) or at least add the ASN file?

@Niharika This means that we'll only be able to show the data that relates to the city, country and perhaps ASN (if we're able to add that file) on Beta.

@Tchanders Do you think there's a possibility we can get the complete files added there? I imagine Alex could follow up with Legal and see if they would allow that.

@Niharika Sure - if we get the go-ahead from @aezell and WMF-Legal, and if we're allowed to put files on that server.

Tagging @BBlack in the hopes he knows anything offhand about shipping new GeoLite2 or full GeoIP2 files to Beta Cluster
