The Eclipse Ankaios Community saw the need for a dashboard and required the implementation by issue #176 “Ankaios Dashboard”. We started working on that issue and implemented a dashboard, that may be deployed as a workload within the Ankaios system. The dashboard was already presented at the Eclipse SDV Community Meeting in Sindelfingen. In correspondence with the project leads Holger Dormann and Kaloyan Rusev we decided to propose the Ankaios Dashboard as an standalone eclipse project.
Eclipse Ankaios Dashboard provides a UI for the Eclipse Ankaios project. It offers insights into a running Ankaios cluster, allows for modification/deletion/creation of workloads and offers a dependency graph for easier understanding of the interdependencies between workloads, comparable to the Kubernetes dashboard. The Ankaios Dashboard is executed in the browser.
The Ankaios Dashboard is the UI for the Eclipse Ankaios project. It offers insights into a running Ankaios cluster, allows for modification/deletion/creation of workloads and offers a dependency graph for easier understanding of the interdependencies between workloads. The dashboard is a powerful tool to understand the functionality of Ankaios, if one didn't use the Ankaios CLI commands so far. Furthermore, if one is running into any issues during the execution of the Ankaios workloads, it is a good starting point to start debugging, especially for finding workloads that are missing that other workloads are depending on.
None.
The goal is to provide an ecosystem of tools for Ankaios, comparable to the Kubernetes project. The tools should be an Eclipse project as it benefits the goal to provide all tools from one hand. The dashboard would be the first tool in that ecosystem.
The dashboard is available in a stable version already. The future work of the project is to add new features requested by the community, keep the dashboard compatible with the latest Ankaios version and gain maturity.
If the project is accepted, then we can instantly provide the source code and ready-to-use images.
