Hackathon API endpoint

management summary // usecase

This API acts as a middelware for service portals and frontends (like SNOW), that can retrieve data via REST API. It manages metadata.

ideas for future

• store the data in redis on initialization or on first request

  • also first query redis, and not directly ONTAP

• documentation -> make it understandable, so that users will use it!

• add capability to apply filters/conditions on the return

  • Alexeys

• performance based filtering

• add capability for finding best clusters, volumes

• get credentials from credential-mgmt-system
