Robert Metzger commented on FLINK-21561: ---------------------------------------- I had an offline discussion with [~autophagy] about fixing this issue: We intend to start a local webserver on the builder, which serves as a cache for binaries loaded from various sources. Instead of downloading from archive.apache.org, we download from localhost:1234/archive.apache.org. The cache will check if the resource is already present in a cached folder, and if so, return the file. [~autophagy] I assigned you to the ticket! Thanks a lot for working on it! > Introduce cache for binaries downloaded by bash tests > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: FLINK-21561 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-21561 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Build System / CI, Test Infrastructure > Reporter: Robert Metzger > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 1.13.0 > > > It seems that archive.apache.org is currently very slow, causing the bash e2e > tests to timeout, because they need a lot of time downloading dependencies. > This ticket is for tracking an improvement to the bash-based e2e tests to > cache the binaries in Azure pipelines Caches [1]. > [1] > https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/release/caching?view=azure-devops -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
