Re: [ovirt-devel] Push notifications in 4.0 backend
Hi everyone,
assuming that 4.0 UI will be based on the existing GWT technology,
I'd like to improve two things which I believe are very important:
#1 goal: improve GWT compilation times
- don't use standard GWT i18n mechanism which yields separate
permutation vector, but use our own i18n mechanism instead
- in practice, compiling for X browsers and Y languages should
result in GWT compiler processing X permutations (not X * Y)
- this will also directly impact GWT debug performance, making
GWT debugging experience less painful for developers
#2 goal: improve UX related to backend operations
- replace periodic polling with push notifications that inform
UI of changes in oVirt "system" as they happen
- in practice, UI becomes reactive instead of proactive, which
has several benefits (reduced HTTP load on Engine being the
most obvious one)
So what Martin wrote in email below directly relates to #2 goal.
Push notifications improve user experience regardless of specific
UI technology, regardless of whether we improve existing REST API
(e.g. introduce data aggregations) or not.
For me, it's a big +1.
Having BLL commands firing CDI events upon execution makes sense.
That said, I'd suggest to start with a simple implementation and
proceed from there.
What Martin suggested:
void onVmChanged(@Observes @Updated VM vm)
could be even simplified into:
void onCommandExecuted(@Observes @CommandExecuted UpdateVmCommand cmd)
and still it would bring value to the general idea, which is the
ability to detect changes in oVirt "system" as they happen along
with the ability to react upon such changes.
I'm interested what Engine backend maintainers' thoughts are.
Regards,
Vojtech

Re: [ovirt-devel] Push notifications in 4.0 backend
Hi All, I have created a PoC patch [1] demonstrating the idea of annotating basic CRUD commands to publish CDI events. It is not meant as 100% solution, but as a simplification of the common use cases when one would inject CDI event with given qualifier and fire it after successful completion of transaction. The usage of this annotations is demonstrated on several basic CRUD commands in [2] on StoragePool, VDS, VDSGroup, .etc As always, comments and suggestions are very welcome!

The patches (mentioned below) look interesting. At this point, it would be great if backend core maintainers voiced their opinions on the general idea of firing CDI events in response to important actions happening on Engine, such as backend commands being executed.

My first patch makes very convenient to fire notification from basic CRUD management operations that manipulate main business entities. The next (and probably more complicated) step will be a refactoring of the monitoring code to support CDI (injections and events) and have it fire events of VmDynamic payload. Then on the event we can have listening scheduler (balancing), HA, ... and other parts that not only won't have to issue expensive DB queries (e.g. GetVmsRunningOnVds) but also can be more decoupled from monitoring (e.g. VdsEventListener). But this will be a little bit more involved than just annotating all CRUD commands with one annotation :-) > > > > > > > > > > > >

As always, we need a cost-risk-benefit evaluation of a change, especially for infra changes, since: 1. Infra changes are more like
