Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-9404:
---------------------------------------
Francis Liu was also talking about separating out the presented information
according to the privileges of the requester. That made some sense but at the
same time the UIs currently still need to be protected from arbitrary access so
users don't mount an accidental (or otherwise) denial of service attack. A
separate monitor will be good for this too.
> Create Monitor Daemon instead of current web ui's

> Key: HBASE-9404
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9404
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: UI
> Affects Versions: 0.98.0
> Reporter: Elliott Clark
>
> It's hard to get designers and front end developers to iterate on our web ui,
> partly because it's not well separated, and partly because it's in java
> jsp/jamon. It would be awesome to have something like Accumulo's monitor.
> Have all of the current daemons just publish everything through json and
> remove the current UI. Then we can separate the ui out into a monitor daemon
> that's just UI.
> This would do a couple of things:
> * force us to publish everything that's interesting though the
> metrics system. (Lots of stuff is there but some stuff isn't there.)
> * remove a lot of resources from our hbase-server jar.
> * make it easier to add graphing other features to the ui.
> * allow us to remove some things from the rs -> master heart beat.
> * encourage front end developers to get involved (wishful ?)
