This could be an issue auditing failed requests, i.e. when unauthorised requests are made against an api, if I understand correctly, those would be dropped before being put on the queue.
Also, I thought that if written as a middleware wsgi component, no modification of the existing code would be necessary, it would just be a change in a config file. Or am I misunderstanding again? /Kieran On 8 Mar 2012, at 02:01, heut2008 wrote: > May be get user actions from message queue is more efficient,also,in this > way,you need not change the nova code. > > 2012/3/7 Kieran Evans <keyz...@gmail.com> > Hi There, > > I'm looking at implementing some form of Auditing/logging for various > components, with the main aim of having a full audit trail of all user > actions, for various legal, and general troubleshooting/support purposes. > > Firstly, I'm wondering if there's already an implementation of something like > this, or an effort towards it.
