Create Performance-Metrics-Dashboard Project
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Name: Create-Performance-Metrics-Dashboard

Type of Project: Project

Description: '
MediaWiki and the ecosystem of services that support it in Wikimedia's production environment emit lots of performance timing data, such as the time it took to process some request or the speed of a network link.

Much of this data is aggregated in two log aggregation systems with graphing capabilities. But the data is not well curated, mixing important metrics with unimportant ones.

This project aims to evaluate the performance timing data aggregated from the Wikimedia cluster, to select and construct several Key Performance Metrics, and then to develop a dashboard of metrics that will allow users to, at-a-glance, understand the timing performance of Mediawiki and its ecosystem of services.

The wiki page refers to a "Performance Portal". Maybe a "Performance-Dashboard" would be better, I will leave this to you to decide. However "Key-Metrics-Dashboard" is very generic, and actually misleading, because it brings to mind i.e. metrics about number of visitors and editors in Wikimedia projects.
