Koala

Learn about Koala Web application.

Koala is Kowabunga’s WebUI. It allows for day-to-day supervision and operation of the various projects and services.

But should you ask a senior DevOps / SRE / IT admin, fully automation-driven, he’d damn anyone who’d have used the Web client to manually create/edit resources and messes around his perfecly maintained CasC.

We’ve all been there !!

That’s why Koala has been designed to be read-only. While using Kowabunga’s API, the project’s directive is to enforce infrastructure and configuration as code, and such, prevents any means to do harm.

Koala is AngularJS based and usually located next to Kahuna’s instance. It provides users with capability to connect, check for the various projects (they belong to) resources, optionnally start/reboot/stop them and/or see various piece of information and … that’s it ;-)
