[jira] [Created] (RANGER-2233) KMS API - add monitoring endpoints

Hari Sekhon created RANGER-2233:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: KMS API - add monitoring endpoints
                 Key: RANGER-2233
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-2233
             Project: Ranger
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: kms
    Affects Versions: 1.1.0
            Reporter: Hari Sekhon


Ranger KMS API needs to add monitoring API endpoints such as /status that shouldn't require a super keyadmin credential. In fact if it was read-only anonymous would probably be fine.

 

The current API documented here only concerns itself with keys and doesn't address operational management:

[http://ranger.apache.org/kms/apidocs/index.html]

 

The /status endpoint and similar should do as comprehensive as check of the health of the Ranger KMS as possible. In one example, /var/log/ filling up stops KMS working, and this should be detected with /status giving a status field showing bad health.

/metrics could also be added around the number of operations tried, succeeded, failed, number of keys etc.
