Background

1. Long term proposal from the LFN TAC is to replace Gerrit and Jenkins with a more modern tool chain and use an “As A Service” approach rather than dedicted instances.
2. General plan is to move to a large cloud hosted solution like GitLab/GitLab-CI
3. We believe reliability will be better
4. We calculate that costs will be lower
5. We believe that more modern SCM will reduce the learning curve for new developers

Approach

1. Prototype with one or two projects to work out the kinks in Frankfurt
2. Plan to move at the start of G release if approved by TSC in time.
3. No project moves unless we are ready
