[DISCUSS] Central Navigation for Alerts and Management UI

Hello everyone,

I recently started experimenting with implementing a navigation bar in both
the Alerts and Management UI. It would allow us to navigate between the two
UIs through links instead of manually entering a url or opening separate
tabs from Ambari.

I'm just wondering what everyone's thoughts are. Is this something we want
in Metron?

I use both screens frequently on prod clusters.  I don't know how prevalent
that use case is though.

Thank you both for explaining the original design choice. That does make
sense.

Re: [DISCUSS] Central Navigation for Alerts and Management UI

That was my thought, too. The Management UI is meant for the Operations persona.
And the Alerts UI is meant for the SOC analyst persona. If we see a need for either of these
personas to use both of the UIs, then the ability to switch between the two UIs would
be great. Otherwise, I'm not sure that ability is necessary.

As an aside, as the tech writer I would love to be able to switch between the two UIs, but I'm not
really one of our supported personas __ Darn!

The original design was done with the intent to keep the user profiles (soc
analyst vs ops personnel) separate and enable a microservices-oriented
architecture. I don't have a strong opinion one way or the other, but I'd
be interested to hear whether others in the community find this wall
useful, or if we should come back to a single pain of glass.
