titleTechnical details

This activity does not seek to implement or replace existing monitoring operated by service owners. It recognizes such monitoring is typically fine grained and detailed as is required to report on internal operations and discover potential issues.
The dashboard is also not intended to serve as a replacement for KPI reports by service owners.

Rather than the traditional Nagios like dashboards that show a range of components that contribute to a service, this activity seeks to present a high level, end users friendly overview of the status of various GEANT provided T&I services.
To do so it intents to initially only include metrics from public http(s) based services endpoints. In order to improve the service status report, options are investigated as to how service owners can manually provide additional service status information. It is noted many freely or commercially available services for measuring availability already exist.
