Concourse Update (May 14–18)

May 18, 2018

In case you missed it, I’d encourage you to check out some of the recent posts from Shashwathi Reddy on “My first month on Concourse” and Joshua Winters regarding upcoming changes to our authentication; “Oh, Auth”. We’d love to hear your feedback!

Heads up: the Concourse team will be taking Monday May 21st off for Victoria Dayholiday.

And now, on to the update:

Core

• Continued banging our heads against new auth connectors with Dex. Note: We’ve started to centralize backwards-(in)compatibilities with user auth in issue #2218
• We’ve stood up a new Concourse with our experimental Spaces work. We’re looking for volunteers who are interested in trying out their pipelines before and after “space”. Tweet at me if you’re interested https://twitter.com/pioverpi!

Runtime

• Completed all the volume collection work for distributed GC in #1959. We’re currently deploying this change to our internal environments to see how it works at scale 🤞
• Fixed issue #2168, wherein “Duplicate resource type volumes created over time”
