Search

 * Erik updated a script that was populating lots of 500 errors in the logs
 * Erik also did a lot of research to evaluate impact of adding ~2700 new shards to production cluster (there is a pdf attached to the last comment in the ticket that contains more information) There is a follow-up ticket as well for the next steps
 * Trey worked on the analysis config for the new Slovak stemmer that was deployed this week—but the plugin still needs to be deployed and the wikis re-indexed.
 * Stas and others worked on looking up entities by external identifiers - the work is done for now, but it needs a re-index to be fully ready
 * David worked on externalizing the parsing logic from SimpleKeywordFeature and FullTextQueryStringQueryBuilder and it was pushed into production in April 2018
