Description

Description

While the dashboard covers some s3 (RGW) ops, those are mostly driven from an storage cluster admin PoV. For multitenancy/self-service management, a different approach should be used:
  • The scale of users is different: Ceph Dashboard may have a few dozens of users, while an s3 admin UI could have 100s-1000s users. Such a scale could pose an impact to the ceph-mgr (everything in the Ceph Dashboard goes through it), so it would make sense to decouple this UI from the current Dashboard.
  • There are s3 web UIs out there, so we should explore the market and consider adopting (and contributing to) one instead of developing another one. Some potential candidates: Netflix ConsoleMe, s3 Manager, ....

Target persona

s3 users.
