Only fundamental difference between beta and prod is that:
- Beta has code that is continuously deployed (auto update)
- Beta has jenkins access
- Beta syncs come page resources from production
*All* other differences have to go, such as:
- The entire 'beta' module
- All ::beta roles
- Realm branching in any mediawiki related module
- Fundamental technology differences
(Swift vs NFS)
This is a tracking bug for tracking this.
