## Problem
We have no specific benchmark testing project migration of postgresql
project with existing data into Neon.
Typical steps of such a project migration are
- schema creation in the neon project
- initial COPY of relations
- creation of indexes and constraints
- vacuum analyze
## Summary of changes
Add a periodic benchmark running 9 AM UTC every day.
In each run:
- copy a 200 GiB project that has realistic schema, data, tables,
indexes and constraints from another project into
- a new Neon project (7 CU fixed)
- an existing tenant, (but new branch and new database) that already has
4 TiB of data
- use pgcopydb tool to automate all steps and parallelize COPY and index
creation
- parse pgcopydb output and report performance metrics in Neon
performance test database
## Logs
This benchmark has been tested first manually and then as part of
benchmarking.yml workflow, example run see
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/actions/runs/11757679870
## Problem
A bunch of small fixes and improvements for CI, that are too small to
have a separate PR for them
## Summary of changes
- CI(build-and-test): fix parenthesis
- CI(actionlint): fix path to workflow file
- CI: remove default args from actions/checkout
- CI: remove `gen3` label, using a couple `self-hosted` +
`small{,-arm64}`/`large{,-arm64}` is enough
- CI: prettify Slack messages, hide links behind text messages
- C(build-and-test): add more dependencies to `conclusion` job
## Problem
Latency from one cloud provider to another one is higher than within the
same cloud provider.
Some of our benchmarks are latency sensitive - we run a pgbench or psql
in the github action runner and the system under test is running in Neon
(database project).
For realistic perf tps and latency results we need to compare apples to
apples and run the database client in the same "latency distance" for
all tests.
## Summary of changes
Move job steps that test Neon databases deployed on Azure into Azure
action runners.
- bench strategy variant using azure database
- pgvector strategy variant using azure database
- pgbench-compare strategy variants using azure database
## Test run

## Problem
> Currently, long-running LR tests recreate endpoints every night. We'd
like to have along-running buildup of history to exercise the pageserver
in this case (instead of "unit-testing" the same behavior everynight).
Closes#8317
## Summary of changes
- Update Postgres version for replication tests
- Set `BENCHMARK_PROJECT_ID_PUB`/`BENCHMARK_PROJECT_ID_SUB` env vars to
projects that were created for this purpose

Change Azure storage configuration to point to new variables/secrets. They have
the `_NEW` suffix in order not to disrupt any tests while we complete the
switch.
## Problem
There are not enough arm runners and jobs in `neon-extra-builds` workflow
take about the same amount of time on a small-arm runner as on
large-arm.
## Summary of changes
- Switch `neon-extra-builds` workflow from `large-arm64` to
`small-arm64` runners
## Problem
Move from aws based arm64 runners to bare-metal based
## Summary of changes
Changes in GitHub action workflows where `runs-on: arm64` used. More
parallelism added, build time for `neon with extra platform builds`
workflow reduced from 45m to 25m
## Problem
Some developers use workstations with arm CPUs, and sometimes x86-64
code is not fully compatible with it (for example,
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/5827).
Although we don't have arm CPUs in the prod (yet?), it is worth having
some basic checks for this architecture to have a better developer
experience.
Closes https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/5829
## Summary of changes
- Run `check-codestyle-rust`-like & `build-neon`-like jobs on Arm runner
- Add `run-extra-build-*` label to run all available extra builds
## Problem
We'll need to switch `REMOTE_STORAGE_AZURE_REGION` from the current
`eastus2` region to something `eu-central-1`-like. This may require
changing `AZURE_STORAGE_ACCESS_KEY`.
To make it possible to switch from one place (not to break a lot of
builds on CI), move `REMOTE_STORAGE_AZURE_CONTAINER` and
`REMOTE_STORAGE_AZURE_REGION` to GitHub Variables.
See https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/settings/variables/actions
## Summary of changes
- Get values for `REMOTE_STORAGE_AZURE_CONTAINER` &
`REMOTE_STORAGE_AZURE_REGION` from GitHub Variables
## Problem
Add a CI pipeline that checks GitHub Workflows with
https://github.com/rhysd/actionlint (it uses `shellcheck` for shell
scripts in steps)
To run it locally: `SHELLCHECK_OPTS=--exclude=SC2046,SC2086 actionlint`
## Summary of changes
- Add `.github/workflows/actionlint.yml`
- Fix actionlint warnings
