Gitlab is battling scalability issues

• rossmohax 7y ago
  For the whole week there is a degraded service for at least some parts of the Gitlab.com: - web unicorn workers stuck - background repo mirrors delayed for hours - scheduled pipelines do not run on time

  Next up on my wishlist: GitLab battling the scalability of their license renewal process for academic users.

    Hello! Just wanted to comment on this, since I'm a GitLab employee and my team is responsible. We currently only have 1 person who is able to do this (my team is 3 people but we all have our own focus areas), so when he's OoO they take a while to get renewed. But we're working on training up/getting access for the rest of the team and also potentially hiring someone else, so hopefully this can get crossed off your wishlist!

      Thanks for the explanation. It's just a bit frustrating to not get any reply for weeks when your license is going to expire in...looking at calendar...3 days from now. Any ETA on when renewals will be possible again?
