Proposed Infrastructure Q3 Goals

[marcushyett-ph]

To help every team have clear impactful goals to work on @jamesefhawkins @timgl @charlescook-ph @marcushyett-ph have come up with a set of ambitious and achievable proposed goals for each team to hit by the end of September 2022.

@fuziontech as team lead, by end of Thursday 7th July, we'd like:

• You to work with the team to iterate on the proposed objective and key results and align on them
• If you decide to radically change the objective or key results, get feedback from at least @timgl @marcushyett-ph
• Merge this PR so we can start discussing the new goals in our weekly all hands and doing some roadmapping on what to build to achieve these, next week

I'll grab this PR and tweak today

Suggested change

	* All deployment methods are support the latest stable versions of dependencies (so we can leverage the benefits of later versions)
	* All deployment methods support the latest stable versions of dependencies (so we can leverage the benefits of later versions)

Typo fix, but this feels arbitrary. I'd like to have concrete reasons why we should support any new version of anything. Specific security patches, performance, features? Like we don't want to support CH 22.6 because it's a mess right now, but would satisfy this goal.

Agree, this is fairly arbitrary, is there a better way to highlight the critical dependencies for us to upgrade in Q3 as key results (e.g. like we needed to do a previous clickhouse upgrade).

@guidoiaquinti already mentioned "Kubernetes v1.25" below, and since we have some customers who rely on bleeding edge versions this could be critical.

Would be great if we could enumerate the biggest ones specifically in this key result.

@guidoiaquinti @hazzadous and I aligned on a few tweaks to the wording during our standup this morning, let us know if you have any additional comments or changes. And feel free to merge!

Yours sincerely,
