    Questions and Notes

    • What is the cutoff date for CUL staff to ask the reporting team to create LDP queries for them?
    • CUL to go to Poppy in February
    • Need to determine how long to keep up LDP Production after move from Metadb Test to Metadb Production and who would have access to LDP Production?
    • In July, should we have LDP Production remain as our second instance through September 1st instead of have Metadb Test as our second instance?
    • If there is a Metadb outage, what happens to the data as synchronization is restarted? (Question for Nassib)


    Priorities

    • queries will be update updated for Metadb based on criticality for functional area, candidacy for Report App, and dependencies from dashboards


    Dependencies

    • Automation team needs early access to Metadb Test for automation work and Prefect access
    • Annual Data Collection needs a failsafe of LDP Production access through through August 1 to create reports
    • FBO needs failsafe of LDP Production access through August 1 to create reports around fiscal year rolloverHosting Team
