[heroes] Ticket #50849: New CNAME request - microos.opensuse.org

Hi folks, we got pinged re https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/50849 "New CNAME request - microos.opensuse.org". If this is something you can address, would you mind prioritizing it? If not, can you please share any pointers/hints you may have so that I can (presumably) raise this with SUSE and/or Micro Focus IT?

Happy to hear that. :-)

Cool, thank you!

Only if I have a good one that matches the situation ;-) - in most cases, the signature gets randomly picked from my collection.
... which somehow made it into RFC 1925 (6a) ;-)
That are indeed some indirections, but they make a lot of sense once you understand the reasons ;-) - microos -> kubic because it's closely related and running on the same VM - using CNAMEs for this helps a lot to understand our setup by looking at the DNS (which is much easier than looking at the haproxy config). Actually we plan to use CNAMEs for more subdomains in the future, for example en.o.o, de.o.o etc. -> wiki.o.o - kubic -> proxy because requests get routed via haproxy (not login2.o.o) - proxy -> proxy-nue might look superfluous, but is very helpful if we ever have to switch to another datacenter (like we did ~2 years ago during the planned power outage at SUSE Nuremberg). Of course we could do the DNS config without all the CNAME indirections, but that would make it harder to understand (which makes debugging more interesting[tm]), and would make big changes (for example switching to another IP address) more difficult.
