TASKCLUSTER_WORKER_LOCATION #148

Closed djmitche closed 5 years ago

Even in a JSON format, there are two levels of detail we need to represent, with the first defining the meaning of the second. I suppose we could call the first "cloud". So perhaps we define a JSON object that must have a cloud property, and in which all other properties are cloud-specific and defined within tc-worker-runner's docs. Then

for cloud: "amazon", properties "region", "availabilityZone"
for cloud: "google", properties "region", "zone"
for cloud: "packet", property "location"

Thoughts?

Are Mozilla's datacenters a "cloud" :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:? Other than that I like the propsed json format.

Regarding "cloud", it is probably good enough, unless somebody has a better suggestion that doesn't clash with other terms we've used.

Yeah, I couldn't think of a better name. I'll put that into the RFC text and we can continue to discuss.

Seeing no further discussion for a week (and I did ping a few interested people a few days ago), I'm going to take this to final-comment, with plans to mark it decided on Wednesday. I'm sensitive to August being a PTO-heavy month, but also to needing to get this done to support some time-sensitive work.

No further comments during the (accidentally extended) FCP.
