All, Christopher and I exchanged some ideas during Accumulo Meetup last week about how we can improve Accumulo Monitoring Page... I would like to reach out to the community to flesh out some prototype ideas and to make sure we are not duplication any ongoing efforts that may take place.
How do you feel about making Accumulo Monitoring Page a deployable war file? Also, we probably should clean up the current site some more (I noticed that some of the titles are not well alligned). In addition, I am thinking about adding Spring Security to control the access to certain pages. Another idea, would be to provide shell capabilities via web page... For example, a user will be able to select a table from drop down of all available tables, and then then do a simple scan to see the data. Neither Christopher or I use Cloudera, so we are not too familiar with it or its features... and I've heard that Cloudera Manager might already provide some of these features? Anyone can confirm it? Even if it is true, I would still want to add as much capabilities to Accumulo without having to use another tool. Also, Christopher mentioned that Billie Rinaldi (Hortonworks) did add some shell interface to the web page. So hopefully, Billie will be able to pitch in with his ideas. Thoughts? Comments? Thanks, Al Krinker
