His contributions of a administrative monitoring dashboard can become a component within Airavata. For this t is justified to use the more internal Registry API with less stringent security requirements (assuming the web app can be co-hosted with the server). But if we look at the other side of this gsoc project, the goal was to make this administrative web interface "embeddable" into downstream portals. These interfaces should ideally use Airavata API and follow standard integration security requirements. But for now, we probably can focus on the internal (bundled administrative interface).
