Deployement
There are three environments.
Dev
- Host: https://msisdn-dev.stage.mozaws.net/
- Maintainer: DEVs
- SMS Gateway: Nexmo
- Usage: Development and integration
This environment is updated with the master branch by devs on a regular basis - or upon request. you can get the version by displaying the root URL of the server.
This environment provides a Mobile number validation for the following countries:
| Client Country | Provider | MCC | Server Number |
|---|---|---|---|
| USA | Nexmo | 302 - 310 - 311 - 312 - 313 - 314 - 315 - 316 - 332 - 544 | 117142940188 |
| France | Nexmo | 208 - 308 - 340 - 543 - 546 - 547 - 647 - 742 | 33644630007 |
| Spain | Nexmo | 214 | 34911067077 |
| Others | Nexmo | 447937946655 |
Stage
- Host: https://msisdn.stage.mozaws.net/
- Maintainer: OPS
- SMS Gateway: OMXEN
- Usage: QA and Loadtesting
This environment is used by QA and dev for load tests. The goal is to measure how many connections can be handled by the server and anticipate errors that might happen on high load.
SMS are not sent for real, they are collected by a fake SMS Gateway: OMXEN. We deployed it at http://omxen.dev.mozaws.net/
Load tests can interact with OMXEN to check what SMSs are sent out of the system.
Production
- Host: https://msisdn.services.mozilla.com/
- Maintainer: OPS
- SMS Gateway: Nexmo
- Usage: Production apps
This environment is used for production and is the default server for Nightly.
The prod environment provide a Mobile number validation for the following countries:
| Client Country | Provider | MCC | Server Number |
|---|---|---|---|
| USA | Nexmo | 302 - 310 - 311 - 312 - 313 - 314 - 315 - 316 - 332 - 544 | 12182967993 |
| More to come |
Release Cycle
The service is continuously pushed into the dev server where client developers can test it.
The service is released in stage then production every other week (or asap if we discover a security breach)
- Tuesday - end of previous cycle. tagging. pushed to stage
- Tuesday through Friday - load testing by James on stage
- Monday - push to production if no regression, if any regression backed off
