 design docs in https://help.torproject.org/tsa/howto/cache/

 launch checklist:

  1. alternatives listing and comparison (done)
  2. deploy a test virtual machine by hand, say `cache-01.tpo` (done)
  3. benchmark the different alternatives (done, ATS and nginx comparable)
  4. setup secondary node with Puppet, say `cache-02.tpo` (done)
  4. validation benchmark against both nodes (done)
  5. lower DNS to 10 minutes wait an hour (done)
  6. open firewall (done)
  7. lower DNS to 3 minutes (done, around 2019-11-05 16:00:00)
  8. point DNS to caches (done)
  11. raise DNS back to 1h if all goes well. (done!)

 Post launch tasks:

  1. update documentation to fill in information from template (done)
  2. hit ratio stats in to Prometheus, separate ticket? (done, although
 missing syslog buffer, see #32461)
  3. convert existing varnish setups into Nginx (probably requires Puppet
 refactoring, see #32462)

 Disaster recovery:

  1. flip DNS back to backend

Comment:

 i think this is done. i split the remaining work in separate tickets:

  * syslog buffer for hit stats, see #32461
  * convert existing varnish setups into Nginx, see #32462

 the docs have been updated as best I could, which about wraps it out:
