Welcome to the website of Infra, the Apache Infrastructure Team!
Serving the technical needs of The Apache Software Foundation and its projects
Looking for Help?
The Apache Infrastructure team, or Infra, supports the day-to-day operations of the technical aspects of the foundation and its projects. If you have questions or require support with email, code repositories, virtual machines, web sites, issue trackers and more, we are here to help!
Services and Tools
Infra supports services for the ASF and its projects, including GitBox, Jira, Confluence, Jenkins, and Buildbot. We have an extensive toolbox that contains both home-brewed solutions and "off the shelf" offerings. Feel free to check them out.
Self-serve
Use our self-serve features to perform tasks ranging from requesting a Jira account to creating a mailing list, without having to involve the Infra team.
Roundtables
Infra holds Roundtable meetings most months to discuss infrastructure development and challenges. Participants are welcome to bring their own concerns, questions, and suggestions.
The next Roundtable will be September 4, 2024, 1200UTC. with a focus on what barriers or challenges projects whose members are primarily in Asia or Australia meet in ASF infrastructure.
Inside Infra
Infra publishes a monthly newsletter, "Inside Infra", on our blog and also emails it to Members and committers who have subscribed to the [email protected]
email list. This is a handy way to catch up on Infrastructure developments, policy changes, and new resources.
