Re: [DISCUSS] Migrate build infrastructure from Travis CI to Azure Pipelines

@Leonard: On Azure, I'm not splitting the execution of the end to end tests
anymore. We won't have the overhead of compiling the same profile multiple
times anymore.


@all: We have recently merged a first version of the Azure configuration
files to Flink [1]. This will allow us to build pull requests with all the
additional checks we had in place for Travis as well.
In the next few days, I'm going to build pushes and the nightly crons on
Azure as well.

From now on, you can set up Azure Pipelines for your own Flink fork as
well, and execute end to end tests there quite easily [2].
I'll be closely monitoring the new setup in the coming days. Expect some
smaller issues while not all pull requests have my changes (at some point,
I will change a configuration in Azure, which will break builds that do not
have my changes)
Once Azure is stable, and we have the same features as the Travis build,
we'll stop processing builds on Travis.

Re: [DISCUSS] Migrate build infrastructure from Travis CI to Azure Pipelines

Posted by Robert Metzger <rm...@apache.org>.
Quick update on this effort: Since yesterday, I'm experimenting with
running the end to end tests with each pull request and "master" push.
I hope that this helps to uncover issues earlier (without waiting for the
nightly test execution)
The tests run for almost 3 hours, so the overall build status will remain
"PENDING" for quite a while. You should still have the regular compile /
test results quicker (depending on the time of day).
We might run into capacity issues with the end to end test execution for
each PR. I'll be closely monitoring this and report back.

In general, please let me know where if you have any problems with the new
CI setup.
For test failures, I'm happy to fix any issues caused by the build system,
just file a ticket for the new "Build System / Azure Pipelines
<https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project+%3D+FLINK+AND+component+%3D+%22Build+System+%2F+Azure+Pipelines%22>
" component.
