All, Request for comments on following ideas, largely in the UI:
1. Does it make sense to simply the Default View as a Project which cannot be deleted and primary space for the Account. Essentially, the default view is the logged in account/user's project with no other collaborators 2. Migrate all isolated network constructs as VPC with a single tier. 3. Simplify templates/isos that are listed in deploy VM form: as a user, the template/iso section of the deploy VM form is complicated, would it make sense to simplify the template/iso shown as groups of guest OS family (like several other portals) and templates uploaded/registered by the account separately. 4. Remove data disk from VM deploy form, or hide it by default (show a button - add volume): Currently, the deploy VM form only supports one data disk, however API can multiple disks. One can always still use APIs, but deploy VM and later attach more disks; or deploy vm but not start it, attach as many data disks as we want and then start it. 5. Show user-data and affinity (placement) groups as a first-class step, not hidden under advanced menu. 6. Offering groups or bundles: introduce way to group/bundle compute/data offerings; for example, I want to see CPU optimised offerings, memory optimiised offerings, specialised offerings (say GPU) etc. Regards.
