Dear all,
During our last meeting [0], we have talked about retiring the statscache service [1]. This is in line with an on going effort to reduce the number of application the infrastructure team has to maintain.
The motivation behind this service was to generate statistics using the data of the fedmsg bus. We believe that this service has very little users if not none. Also the commops groups is currently working on another solution to generated statistics using fedmsg [2], this solution is based on GrimoireLab [3].
If there is little interest for this project, we will likely to retire it after the F29 beta freeze [4]
Regards, Clément

Hi Clément, I am not personally aware of any extensive use of it in CommOps. The best people to answer are either Bee (bee2502) or Sachin (skamath), since they were working with it last, to my knowledge. I don't believe there are blockers from our side.
If your time allows, a short CommBlog article announcing its permanent retirement would be appreciated, since it gives an easily-shared point of reference for its retirement.
