Hello,
few students of mine are considering doing Diploma Thesis for Red Hat.
Can you figure out some good Foreman topics? Unfortunately, it looks
like today UNIX and datacenter administration is uncool, as I have
learned the other day, so ideally they are looking for:
- JavaScript and UI/UX
- web app development in general
- mobile programming
- iOS / macOS / Swift (need to google that one out)
Ideal task is something isolated, that can be done as a different
project or plugin. Send me your ideas, thanks!
Some ideas I can think of...
* New Auditing/Event framework within the core and plugins. Use cases
could be:
** I would like to see everything a user did last week
** I would like to see everything done to a host
** I would like to get an alert (text, sms, email) when a host goes red
** I would like to get an alert (text, sms, email) when XXX conditions
are met
** I would like to kick off a job in another system when an XXX event
happen in foreman
* Addition of tags to allow for static groups, and remote actions
against those groups. Probably some normalization around bookmarks with
this.
* I dont know if a mobile app makes sense, but some anlaysis/work around
scaling the app down to a mobile-friendly web page. The use case would
be checking the status of my network when I am just on my smart phone.
A question I would have out to the community, what type of
reports/graphs/dashboards do your bosses like to see? Is there some sort
of visualization that, if included with the tool, would be useful for
you to have? This type of graph/eye candy may be good ideas here.
Maybe, something akin to:
Draw out the server, smart proxy, and all services. So I can generate a
picuture which shows this box has the server, which talk to that box
with the proxy, which in turn communicates with a DHCP server at XXX.
