Description christian 2014-07-17 09:55:04 UTC
Currently, we're using the default vhost on stat1001.wikimedia.org for
various public datasets. We should migrate away from the default vhost
to a proper, separate vhost for those datasets.

This vhost can again be served from stat1001.wikimedia.org

Private discussion [1] came forward with the suggestion of using "datasets"
as name for this vhost.

One possible way to do the migration might be:
* Bringing the new domain up and make it serve the same content as
  stat1001's default vhost.
* Announcing the move on the analytics mailing list.
* Waiting 4 weeks
  During this time, both domains are functional.
  People can use this grace period to migrate their services.
* Turning off stat1001's default vhost.

The corresponding RT ticket is RT #7858.

Thanks!

However, it seems urls like

  https://stat1001.wikimedia.org/limn-public-data/mobile/datafiles/alltime-numbers.csv

are broken now, but are getting used by others (e.g.: The “[1]” link on

  https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Mobile_web_upload_deletion_stats.png

). Not sure though ... did they work before?

Also, shouldn't we bring the change forward to the community?

ottomata in IRC [1] doubted that https urls worked before.
So they probably didn't work before either.
