1324526 - Remove links to dead dashboards from telemetry.m.o

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Cloud Services Graveyard :: Metrics: Pipeline, defect, P1)

Description

[David Durst [:ddurst]]

We have lots of dashboards. We have lots of users. We aren't sure which dashboards are actually used by users.

So we're going to remove dashboards that are known to be broken (and thus possibly unused) and reinstate a(n updated) replacement if there is outcry.

Annnd it's been merged. So that's a first step.

Here's a list of dashboards remaining in the list and my comments on what I think we should do about them:
Chrome Hangs -- should probably nix it since we nixed BHR
Experiment Monitoring -- KEEP, useful
Fennec App Not Responding (ANR) -- No idea.
Population Distribution -- Still displaying data from Nov 5-11, 2015. Maybe replace with a link to the Firefox Hardware Report (https://metrics.mozilla.com/firefox-hardware-report/)?
Power Dashboard DRAFT -- No idea. It's hosted on rvitillo's peoplemo account, so ni? for if it's useful as it stands or if he thinks it should be delisted.
SlowSQL -- Like BHR, Chrome hang, and Main Thread I/O... probably can nix it.
Telemetry Alerts -- Keep.
Fennec UI Telemetry -- No idea.
Firefox UI Telemetry -- To be replaced with the new event telemetry? gfritzsche ni?
Graphics Telemetry -- Is up-to-date and works. Keep.
Update Orphaning -- New, works, keep.
Stability Dashboard -- New, works, keep.

@Sebastian, do you know if this is used & relevant?
https://telemetry.mozilla.org/hang/anr/

This was never updated AFAICT, replacing it sounds fine.
We should add the hardware report either way!

> Fennec UI Telemetry -- No idea.

I think this is effectively dead and all Fennec UI events analysis is done in re:dash now.
This should have been the backing source:
https://github.com/mfinkle/fennec-telemetry/tree/master/dashboard

Yes, could just move it to the disabled dashboards too.

Feel free to remove that dashboard.

I don't use it - and I as far as I know no one from the Android front-end team does. It's good to know about ANRs if they get above a critical threshold though (like crashes). Let me flag Jim to get the view from the Android platform team too.

We need a new backend for the ANR dashboard to work correctly, so I think it can be removed for now.

Calling this done for now. At some point (maybe next quarter?) we can clear out all of the disabled list items so it looks less cluttered. No rush.
