Plugin model for CloudStack UI

[Dharshan Rangegowda <dh...@scalegrid.net>]

Hi folks,

Is somebody working on building a plugin model for the CloudStack UI? This
will make it easy for folks who are building value added services on top of
CloudStack to integrate with the CloudStack UI. In our case we are building
a "MongoDB as a service" on top of CloudStack. However we have our own
separate UI for this and hence our users need to deal with two portals -
our MongoDB portal and their cloudStack portal. In the ideal scenario we
would like the user to login to the CloudStack portal and be able to use
our product.

There was a discussion here:

A few questions:
1. Are you planning to host the APIs in the CloudStack Management server?
2. If not, do you need access to the user's credentials? (API and secret
key and password)
3. Are there any admin interfaces as well?
