1 00:01:27.330 ⇒ 00:01:28.460 Demilade Agboola: Hi, Emily.
2 00:01:30.110 ⇒ 00:01:31.759 Emily Giant: Hey, how’s it going?
3 00:01:32.230 ⇒ 00:01:33.369 Demilade Agboola: Pretty good, how are you?
4 00:01:33.710 ⇒ 00:01:47.500 Emily Giant: I’m okay. I’m just talking to Perry right now. She has a bunch of dashboards that are failing, and I’m trying to help her figure out why. But I’m having her send the issues to the Brainforge channel so that we can all take a look at what might have caused it.
5 00:01:47.730 ⇒ 00:01:51.430 Demilade Agboola: Okay, is it the same old revenue dashboards, or is it a different dashboard?
6 00:01:51.960 ⇒ 00:01:55.450 Emily Giant: It is, here, I’ll send it real quick.
7 00:01:58.640 ⇒ 00:02:04.539 Emily Giant: So, here’s one.
8 00:02:20.970 ⇒ 00:02:25.379 Emily Giant: Okay, and then she sent some screenshots of failures. These are all, like, new.
9 00:02:38.560 ⇒ 00:02:39.270 Emily Giant: Okay.
10 00:02:39.740 ⇒ 00:02:41.100 Amber Lin: Hello.
11 00:02:41.100 ⇒ 00:02:42.170 Emily Giant: Hey, Amber.
12 00:02:43.970 ⇒ 00:02:51.800 Amber Lin: Good morning, I’m on my phone hotspot right now, so my linear is still not loading.
13 00:02:52.240 ⇒ 00:02:53.710 Amber Lin: Let me try…
14 00:03:00.840 ⇒ 00:03:02.210 Amber Lin: Boom.
15 00:03:03.610 ⇒ 00:03:04.460 Amber Lin: Hmm.
16 00:03:08.100 ⇒ 00:03:10.130 Emily Giant: Yeah, these are, like, all new…
17 00:03:11.010 ⇒ 00:03:21.769 Emily Giant: failures that I’ve not seen before, and I don’t know why they would fail. Honestly, it might even be nothing that we’ve done. It could be, like.
18 00:03:23.050 ⇒ 00:03:28.820 Emily Giant: okay, I’m just adding you to the conversation with Perry, hold on.
19 00:03:31.310 ⇒ 00:03:34.120 Demilade Agboola: Let’s a job as far as this, go out…
20 00:03:43.910 ⇒ 00:03:48.270 Demilade Agboola: It appears there’s, like, a primary key requirement that is failing.
21 00:03:49.300 ⇒ 00:03:51.520 Demilade Agboola: For one of the explorers, probably.
22 00:03:53.060 ⇒ 00:03:54.450 Emily Giant: What’s failing? Sorry.
23 00:03:54.660 ⇒ 00:03:59.300 Demilade Agboola: It appears that there is a primary key requirement that is saving for one of the explorers.
24 00:03:59.300 ⇒ 00:04:03.659 Emily Giant: Yeah, that one I thought I fixed. I remember that from, like, last week.
25 00:04:04.030 ⇒ 00:04:06.909 Emily Giant: But, let me check through all of these, okay.
26 00:04:07.040 ⇒ 00:04:11.569 Emily Giant: Job previous week actuals failed air in generating dashboard.
27 00:04:12.160 ⇒ 00:04:15.669 Emily Giant: Non… okay, yeah, I see that now, it’s the same thing.
28 00:04:16.910 ⇒ 00:04:17.790 Emily Giant: Alright.
29 00:04:18.450 ⇒ 00:04:24.700 Demilade Agboola: Okay, it also appears that you might need to schedule things differently. Like, I don’t know what… what’s the schedule?
30 00:04:25.530 ⇒ 00:04:29.019 Demilade Agboola: How do you schedule the jobs? Can we look at that?
31 00:04:29.690 ⇒ 00:04:31.580 Emily Giant: In Looker?
32 00:04:32.050 ⇒ 00:04:32.810 Demilade Agboola: Yeah.
33 00:04:32.810 ⇒ 00:04:37.140 Emily Giant: She just does, like, her own scheduling from within the interface.
34 00:04:38.830 ⇒ 00:04:43.710 Emily Giant: That’s like a… it’s just like a looker feature that you can click on a report and schedule a send.
35 00:04:44.230 ⇒ 00:04:51.109 Demilade Agboola: Yeah, that’s fine, because it appears that there are too many… like, they seem to be running at the same time, like, there seems to be a clash.
36 00:04:51.920 ⇒ 00:04:58.800 Emily Giant: Oh, okay. Well, that’s easy to resolve, but that’s never happened to her before, and these have been scheduled for a long time.
37 00:05:00.200 ⇒ 00:05:02.350 Emily Giant: time on with her. Do you have any time, like…
38 00:05:03.210 ⇒ 00:05:10.489 Emily Giant: I don’t… I mean, I could try to resolve them, but I’m worried that if this continues, she’s gonna go postal.
39 00:05:12.200 ⇒ 00:05:12.790 Demilade Agboola: Do you want to…
40 00:05:12.790 ⇒ 00:05:17.800 Emily Giant: Okay, I see that now, yeah. The too many connections for Looker underscore user?
41 00:05:18.170 ⇒ 00:05:18.920 Demilade Agboola: Yes, that’s.
42 00:05:18.920 ⇒ 00:05:21.600 Emily Giant: changing the YAML file, or…
43 00:05:22.460 ⇒ 00:05:26.370 Demilade Agboola: Because looker on the core user is the name that Looker User has to Redshift.
44 00:05:27.710 ⇒ 00:05:29.230 Emily Giant: Say it again? I’m sorry.
45 00:05:29.560 ⇒ 00:05:35.749 Demilade Agboola: Looker underscore user is Redshift… is the name Redshift recognizes Looker as?
46 00:05:35.750 ⇒ 00:05:37.970 Emily Giant: Oh, oh, okay.
47 00:05:37.970 ⇒ 00:05:39.130 Demilade Agboola: That’s redshift.
48 00:05:39.510 ⇒ 00:05:41.260 Emily Giant: Oh, okay.
49 00:05:41.260 ⇒ 00:05:42.150 Demilade Agboola: What’s that?
50 00:05:42.560 ⇒ 00:05:48.709 Demilade Agboola: there are too many… so it’s… I think there is an overlap, and I need to give, like, a bit of a, like, wider window.
51 00:05:49.280 ⇒ 00:05:50.940 Demilade Agboola: But it does appear…
52 00:05:51.040 ⇒ 00:05:58.469 Demilade Agboola: That those jobs are overlapping, or there are a number of jobs overlapping, causing them to fail, and that’s why the data is getting stale.
53 00:06:01.160 ⇒ 00:06:04.419 Emily Giant: Okay, I’m gonna write some of this to her while we’re here.
54 00:06:07.740 ⇒ 00:06:09.709 Demilade Agboola: Sorry to sidetrack the stand-up, Amber.
55 00:06:09.710 ⇒ 00:06:14.689 Emily Giant: Sorry, it was just critical, and I know it’s gonna ruin our day if I don’t fix this.
56 00:06:17.890 ⇒ 00:06:25.990 Amber Lin: Yeah, it’s important. I’m mostly just… .
57 00:06:31.860 ⇒ 00:06:33.950 Demilade Agboola: Is it just me, or is Amber cutting in and out?
58 00:06:34.180 ⇒ 00:06:37.759 Emily Giant: She’s cutting in and out. Do you want me to pull the board, Amber? Would that help?
59 00:06:48.370 ⇒ 00:06:51.610 Amber Lin: Yeah, I am on very bad internet.
60 00:06:52.670 ⇒ 00:07:00.180 Emily Giant: Do you want to go async? And we’ll just update our tickets? Or I can… I can pull up the screen, like, give the rundown real quick.
61 00:07:02.920 ⇒ 00:07:06.200 Emily Giant: Here, she’s… her internet’s, like, completely…
62 00:07:06.380 ⇒ 00:07:08.590 Demilade Agboola: Yeah, it’s really bad. Yeah, it’s really bad.
63 00:07:09.990 ⇒ 00:07:11.459 Emily Giant: Can you see my screen?
64 00:07:15.980 ⇒ 00:07:19.109 Emily Giant: No, okay, I’m trying to pull up linear, sorry.
65 00:07:20.140 ⇒ 00:07:21.550 Emily Giant: Send request.
66 00:07:51.750 ⇒ 00:07:53.459 Emily Giant: Alright, Demolade, are you there?
67 00:07:53.910 ⇒ 00:07:54.630 Demilade Agboola: Yes, I am.
68 00:07:54.630 ⇒ 00:08:02.070 Emily Giant: Okay, so… let’s just go through it together. Fact orders, fact suborders.
69 00:08:02.300 ⇒ 00:08:03.099 Demilade Agboola: He’s in his…
70 00:08:03.900 ⇒ 00:08:11.440 Emily Giant: What’d you say? Oh, I requested from Amber, but I don’t think that her… I don’t think that she has enough internet to give me permission to share.
71 00:08:12.330 ⇒ 00:08:14.649 Demilade Agboola: Okay, I think I could… let me see if I can share.
72 00:08:14.670 ⇒ 00:08:15.290 Emily Giant: Go.
73 00:08:17.170 ⇒ 00:08:17.880 Demilade Agboola: Hmm…
74 00:08:23.700 ⇒ 00:08:24.790 Demilade Agboola: Oh, okay.
75 00:08:28.300 ⇒ 00:08:32.450 Demilade Agboola: Sorry, this is filtered to me…
76 00:08:35.740 ⇒ 00:08:43.870 Demilade Agboola: I might need to… Alright, so this is for urban standings, this is all issues.
77 00:08:47.370 ⇒ 00:08:48.470 Demilade Agboola: Filtered to me.
78 00:08:49.690 ⇒ 00:08:53.349 Demilade Agboola: Gotcha. So I think these are the active ones we’re looking at.
79 00:08:55.340 ⇒ 00:09:05.310 Demilade Agboola: Let me… Group by… assignee… Alright.
80 00:09:06.960 ⇒ 00:09:14.039 Demilade Agboola: So, for me, facts of orders and facts orders, I… they’re both in progress. It’s a bit of…
81 00:09:14.830 ⇒ 00:09:19.589 Demilade Agboola: This is kind of what has been delineated. I’ve been starting… I should put this in progress.
82 00:09:19.890 ⇒ 00:09:28.389 Demilade Agboola: I’m doing some infra work as well, so I won’t attend the PR today, but then I also hope to finish up the fax orders and suborders by tomorrow.
83 00:09:29.260 ⇒ 00:09:31.260 Demilade Agboola: That would also come with the tests.
84 00:09:31.610 ⇒ 00:09:37.120 Demilade Agboola: For this, I believe this is done. We’ve already merged that.
85 00:09:38.130 ⇒ 00:09:44.260 Demilade Agboola: And then these ones come after these parts have been done.
86 00:09:47.130 ⇒ 00:09:50.719 Demilade Agboola: Emily, do you have any updates on your tickets?
87 00:09:51.580 ⇒ 00:10:02.810 Emily Giant: No, no updates. I’d say that I’m blocked on a lot of them, because they’re based on, like, loop subscriptions having the base models built out, and they’re not yet. So,
88 00:10:03.020 ⇒ 00:10:06.210 Emily Giant: I need to talk to Utam, because a lot of those are on his plate.
89 00:10:06.640 ⇒ 00:10:07.150 Demilade Agboola: Oh, no.
90 00:10:07.150 ⇒ 00:10:12.320 Emily Giant: But those are all, like, blocked if they have the word subscription in them. The rest are, like.
91 00:10:12.620 ⇒ 00:10:16.060 Emily Giant: improg… not the rest. Fact line items and fact…
92 00:10:16.660 ⇒ 00:10:25.149 Emily Giant: orders are in progress, but I wanted to chat with you during the, working session tomorrow, just to make sure that, like, I’m…
93 00:10:25.340 ⇒ 00:10:38.599 Emily Giant: building them out how you imagine in Looker, because right now they’re not, like, connected in dbt, and I can connect them in Looker only, and just have them as Explore… have them as views that connect in the Explorer, but I want to make sure that that was the plan.
94 00:10:40.000 ⇒ 00:10:42.140 Demilade Agboola: Okay, sounds good. Tomorrow works for me.
95 00:10:42.140 ⇒ 00:10:43.370 Emily Giant: Okay, cool.
96 00:10:44.210 ⇒ 00:10:49.830 Emily Giant: But yeah, nothing’s at risk outside of the historical subscriptions in the Sprint.
97 00:10:50.140 ⇒ 00:10:53.330 Demilade Agboola: Michelle, Rich’s… what was the number, please?
98 00:10:53.330 ⇒ 00:10:54.299 Emily Giant: Where is it?
99 00:10:55.130 ⇒ 00:10:58.590 Emily Giant: Align Legacy Subscription, right there, 331.
100 00:10:58.940 ⇒ 00:11:02.690 Demilade Agboola: Either one… That’s true.
101 00:11:02.840 ⇒ 00:11:03.740 Emily Giant: Hmm.
102 00:11:10.740 ⇒ 00:11:14.510 Demilade Agboola: Okay, we’ll need to,
103 00:11:15.550 ⇒ 00:11:19.089 Demilade Agboola: sync with Utown to just have an idea of what’s going on with his ticket.
104 00:11:19.090 ⇒ 00:11:19.900 Emily Giant: Yeah.
105 00:11:23.600 ⇒ 00:11:26.590 Demilade Agboola: I think that that’s largely it.
106 00:11:26.760 ⇒ 00:11:29.360 Demilade Agboola: I’m not sure if there’s anything else we need to go over.
107 00:11:29.800 ⇒ 00:11:36.480 Amber Lin: Yeah, sounds good. Are we going to do 310?
108 00:11:38.040 ⇒ 00:11:39.430 Demilade Agboola: Oh, let me share my screen again.
109 00:11:40.920 ⇒ 00:11:42.030 Emily Giant: DBS test?
110 00:11:42.160 ⇒ 00:11:43.689 Emily Giant: For fax reporters?
111 00:11:43.810 ⇒ 00:11:46.759 Emily Giant: that shouldn’t take any time at all. Like…
112 00:11:47.180 ⇒ 00:11:49.879 Emily Giant: We need it, but it sh… that’s, like…
113 00:11:50.690 ⇒ 00:11:51.510 Demilade Agboola: Yeah.
114 00:11:51.510 ⇒ 00:11:52.520 Emily Giant: 2 seconds.
115 00:11:53.250 ⇒ 00:11:56.320 Demilade Agboola: Yeah, it’s not, it’s, it’s, it’s a small, it’s a small task.
116 00:11:56.500 ⇒ 00:11:59.860 Amber Lin: Okay, then, that sounds good.
117 00:11:59.860 ⇒ 00:12:01.250 Emily Giant: Same with 309.
118 00:12:03.400 ⇒ 00:12:04.300 Amber Lin: Okay.
119 00:12:04.700 ⇒ 00:12:14.980 Amber Lin: For the… I know we’re working on the infrastructure work, that’s… when would, say, infrastructure work be done, and when would fact orders be done?
120 00:12:16.860 ⇒ 00:12:21.369 Demilade Agboola: Infrastructure work’s being fully done. I’m not sure when, like, we’ll…
121 00:12:21.500 ⇒ 00:12:30.559 Demilade Agboola: because, you know, we’re currently running two infrastructures in parallel, right? We have the new one we’re building out, and then there’s the old one in place where things are happening.
122 00:12:30.750 ⇒ 00:12:33.110 Demilade Agboola: So, infrastructure work will…
123 00:12:35.060 ⇒ 00:12:51.650 Demilade Agboola: We can get most of it clear right now, but the idea is, because things are built in… a lot of things are built on legacy systems, we might still need to go back and, you know, dabble in things, or things might, you know, data might be still, might have to figure out a reason why it’s still.
124 00:12:51.850 ⇒ 00:12:53.680 Demilade Agboola: Yeah, so…
125 00:12:53.820 ⇒ 00:13:03.250 Demilade Agboola: Ideally, we want to get a lot of it done, like, by this week, but obviously, we can’t say that that’ll be the end of it forever. You know, things do happen.
126 00:13:03.490 ⇒ 00:13:05.460 Demilade Agboola: And it can still pop up again.
127 00:13:06.200 ⇒ 00:13:17.899 Amber Lin: I see. I mostly just want to know if we’re gonna push anything out, because I think if we do, it’s most likely gonna be the, daily revenue summary or marketing summary, I’m just…
128 00:13:18.280 ⇒ 00:13:21.260 Amber Lin: Being ready if we need to push anything out.
129 00:13:21.360 ⇒ 00:13:23.640 Amber Lin: Okay, sounds perfect.
130 00:13:23.940 ⇒ 00:13:33.629 Amber Lin: That’s all. I’ll check with Utam on his progress, and then… yeah, I’ll check on his tickets. Some of them are NPR, and some of them have not been moved.
131 00:13:34.150 ⇒ 00:13:36.269 Amber Lin: Alright, thank you both.
132 00:13:36.640 ⇒ 00:13:45.490 Emily Giant: Thank you, and Demolati, I’m adding a ticket for this scheduled looker job failure, just so that we keep track of, like, anything that derailed the sprint.
133 00:13:45.960 ⇒ 00:13:47.090 Demilade Agboola: Okay, sounds good.
134 00:13:47.090 ⇒ 00:13:47.440 Emily Giant: Alright.
135 00:13:47.440 ⇒ 00:13:49.060 Amber Lin: Awesome. Alrighty.
136 00:13:49.060 ⇒ 00:13:49.690 Emily Giant: I think so.
137 00:13:49.990 ⇒ 00:13:50.500 Emily Giant: Bye.
138 00:13:50.500 ⇒ 00:13:51.060 Demilade Agboola: Right.
