OpenSearch on K8s: update docker images and think about monitoring options
Open, MediumPublic

Description

We (Wikimedia Foundation) use our own Docker image for OpenSearch, which is based on Debian and uses the same OpenSearch Debian packages we use in production (ultimately sourced from the OpenSearch project's Debian repository).

These packages are hosted in a repo called thirdparty/opensearch${version} and can be found using the Wikimedia APT browser tool . For example, the OpenSearch 2 packages come from https://apt-browser.toolforge.org/trixie-wikimedia/thirdparty/opensearch2/ .

When we update these packages as described here , we should immediately update the Docker image as well. I neglected to do that on our last update.

Creating this ticket to:

  • Apply the latest package updates with reprepro as linked above
  • Create new Docker images
  • Consider monitoring for mismatches between the OpenSearch version provided in our latest Docker images and the OpenSearch versions available from the Debian repos.
