Discovery/Status updates/2019-03-18

This is the weekly update for the week starting 2019-03-18

Search

 * Nearly done with the upgrade to ElasticSearch v6:
 * Upgrade relforge to elasticsearch 6.5.4
 * Upgrade deployment-elastic* to 6.5.4
 * Build wmf-elasticsearch-search-plugins.deb that supports elastic 6.5.4
 * There was a minor bug in not getting a search result for "garrett marquis" or "Garrett Marquis"; Erik investigated and found it was a minor html issue and corrected it. FYI, it will take ~8 weeks for all content across all wikis to be reindexed.
 * As part of the work done to separate the CirrusSearch/Elastic specific code from Wikibase code base, Stas deployed WikibaseCirrusSearch in production and all searches are now running through it

WDQS

 * New Release of Blazegraph (2.1.5) is announced. We have released 0.3.1 version of WDQS build with it.
