This is a ticket to discuss and add what features should be there in the dashboard
Currently, we have the following
As a non-technical person, I want to see if something is wrong with the backups, at a glance
Dedicate one panel to this, eg below
As a member of DBOps, I want to know where exactly the issue is
Dedicate one panel, or a page for this, eg below (TODO -- make it report by backup type, rather than by datacenter)
As a member of DBOps, I want granular data on what backup is failing [whether snapshot or dump -- we need to refine]
An example is below (this would be shown per backup type -- snapshot or dump).
As discussed, we should be able to see
- what type of backup is failing,
- whether it is the size difference,
- or whether it is caused by unfresh backups,
- and whether this is caused by persistent backup failures
- what datacenter and server took the most recent successful backup (where is this stored? What's the definition of a successful backup?)
This ticket is to discuss what features you would like to see as a part of the final evaluation for GSoC, and what would be deemed essential
