Harmonize DNS on all gerrit instances
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Given the conversation on this patch, it would be helpful to harmonize the way we manage Gerrit DNS records across instances. All instances could be moved behind CDN as well (?)

ABran-WMF renamed this task from Harmonize all gerrit instances to Harmonize DNS on all gerrit instances.Feb 12 2026, 2:02 PM

I was about to open a task to move the gerrit replica and spare instance also behind the CDN. This reduces the infrastructure complexity (like the problem state in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/operations/dns/+/1238708/comments/611196ca_6c6dc3ce ) and make all instances as equal as possible.

So +1 for the harmonization.

I was going to say something similar on Gerrit.. I was starting to wonder if all service names (gerrit-spare, gerrit-replica) should also be load-balanced before answering the review request for the DNS change. +1

We moved all gerrit instances behind CDN, they all have the same DNS pattern
