Access to Logging Data for OpenVSX
I'm reaching out to ask for your assistance in accessing both past and future logging data for the OpenVSX instance available at open-vsx.org. Our goal is to enhance the reliability of OpenVSX, especially in light of the recent outages (notably on January 6th and several in August, details at status.open-vsx.org, with specific focus on the Search API). To effectively analyze and address these reliability challenges, we have identified a need for deeper insights and observability into the system's behavior in production. Specifically, we are looking for:
- Kubernetes Cluster Level Logging
- Logging of the OpenVSX Backend
- Logging of the Elasticsearch Process
- Any additional available logs or data, such as monitoring and/or tracing, relevant to analysing the outages, failover, application errors, etc.
We are dedicated to enhancing OpenVSX as a robust and reliable open-source project. Your support in providing access to these logs would greatly assist us in this endeavor. Not only will this help us address the current challenges, but it will also guide us in determining what additional logging and monitoring capabilities would be most effective for future incident analysis. Could you please advise on the best procedure for us as part of the OpenVSX community to obtain these logs and any other relevant data for the past and for the future?
We appreciate your help and are looking forward to your suggestions and guidance. Thank you for your continued support of the open-source community!
