The idea is to have a friendly way to access live cluster's nodes, compare outputs of simple commands and find out differences in tables data / structure.

When all of the SUSE Manager squads switched from SCRUM to a Kanban we lost estimations and therefore also the ability to do predictions. But there are other ways to get insights that are even more reliable, since they are based on anecdotal data. The lead and cycle times of issues are the two most important here.

Create a new generic CUPS wrapper backend /usr/lib/cups/backend/monitor that runs in parallel with the actual backend to monitor it.

Following trademark and licensing issues with Grafana, explore the possibility of debranding Grafana and use that in SUSE Manager (and maybe others)

At SUSE Manager and Uyuni we use right now a set of bash scripts called sumaform-test-runner to run terraform and cucumber, send notifications and store cucumber results.

We've (mostly @cbruckmayer) put a significant amount of time into our performance measurement dashboards based on influx/grafana. I want to share this with the world because it's most awesome and easy to use. It's also nice if people don't go to some PaaS provider just for this...

Currently, the SUMA test-suite takes about 6 hours to complete, often fails in the first tests, which set up the environment for the rest of the tests, those tests are what we named "core features".

There are attempts to solve some kernel deadlock with using lockless printk ringbuffer. The proposed implementation is pretty complex (6 stages, 6 write and 6 read barriers, two buffers, entries linked via list, ...)
