9- The Ceph Dashboard is a built-in web-based Ceph management and monitoring
10- application through which you can inspect and administer various aspects
11- and resources within the cluster. It is implemented as a :ref: `ceph-manager-daemon ` module.

13- The original Ceph Dashboard that was shipped with Ceph Luminous started
14- out as a simple read-only view into run-time information and performance
15- data of Ceph clusters. It used a very simple architecture to achieve the
16- original goal. However, there was growing demand for richer web-based
17- management capabilities, to make it easier to administer Ceph for users that
18- prefer a WebUI over the CLI.
19-
20- The new :term: `Ceph Dashboard ` module adds web-based monitoring and
21- administration to the Ceph Manager. The architecture and functionality of this new
22- module are derived from
23- and inspired by the `openATTIC Ceph management and monitoring tool
24- <https://openattic.org/> `_. Development is actively driven by the
25- openATTIC team at `SUSE <https://www.suse.com/ >`_, with support from
26- companies including `Red Hat <https://redhat.com/ >`_ and members of the Ceph
27- community.
28-
29- The dashboard module's backend code uses the CherryPy framework and implements
30- a custom REST API. The WebUI implementation is based on
31- Angular/TypeScript and includes both functionality from the original dashboard
32- and new features originally developed for the standalone version
33- of openATTIC. The Ceph Dashboard module is implemented as an
34- application that provides a graphical representation of information and statistics
35- through a web server hosted by ``ceph-mgr ``.
