REVS

So you want to get a grasp on what's going on when you release? Enter REVS – Release Engineering Visibility System (a software previously know as grasp).

REVS...

• is a data-warehouse, it's not a master data source. Updates may be lost.
• provides high speed access to all aspects of a release
• allows management reports on bugs, features, changes, packages

It integrates with, but isn't part of the BOSS workflow system.

Implementation consists of three areas:

• Data model
  • Master python model
  • Reporting model (django)
• Data uptake
  • Sqlalchemy based; uses the revs object
  • Per data-source feeds
• Reporting via Django
