Dear all: I've been talking to people on and off about doing a web frontend re-write, in fact I have been thinking about it since almost three years ago when I started the "wishlist" thread:
http://www.mail-archive.com/ganglia-developers@lists.sourceforge.net/msg03070.html I've managed to gather a group of developers and users who are interested in this re-write effort and we are planning to have a discussion forum on irc.freenode.net #ganglia on 10/13/2010 (next Wednesday) from 9-10am PDT. I would like to extend this invitation to anybody interested in participating. Here's the agenda: Introductions: Briefly introduce yourself Discussion points: - Use case of Ganglia - Language: PHP? Ruby on Rails? Framework? - Technologies: graphite, canvas, SVG, javascriptrrd, flot, jQuery, node.js - Modular by design, extensible by users - State: Login, different views for administrator, managers, operators - Browsing (server-side) vs Customization/Interactive mode (client-side) - Customization: custom graphs, overlay graphs, compare arbitrary graphs - Interactivity: Allow users to interact with graphs, zoom in/out, etc. - Allow arbitrary grouping of hosts - URL pretty names: eg. http://ganglia.info/grid/cluster/host - Flexible URL API for graph generation (turn legends on/off, titles, height, width, etc.) - Metric query backend (JSON?) - Search for host/metric/graphs (aka Ganglia Instant) - Identified by unique identifiers (as opposed to hostnames) - New logos, icons, etc. Hope to see you all there.
