Re: [Hawkular-dev] open shift agent - what to call it?

Personally I would vote for: - Renaming the existing "Hawkular Agent" to "Hawkular WildFly Agent" and reduce its scope to the embedded WF scenario (+ remote for domains). Small in scope == easier to maintain, document, understand... - Name this one "Hawkular Kubernetes Agent", or "Hawkular OpenShift Agent" if it really depends on OpenShift (but I'm not sure why), because the discovery is a key feature and I guess (will) use Kubernetes API. I can understand this could be extended to other usecases that don't involve WildFly or Kubernetes, but I'm afraid that we just make things more complex/harder to understand while those 2 targets are key. PS: I don't think we need yet another cryptic name as GoHawk / Hawkulark (and in theory requires legal implication) Thomas On Tue, Oct 18, 2016 at 7:08 PM, John Mazzitelli <mazz(a)redhat.com&gt; wrote: > OK, folks, as much as I hate these "what should we name this thing?" > threads, I have to do it. > > We are at the point where we are going to start going full-throttle on > building out an agent that can monitor things on Open Shift (and Heiko > wants to be able to monitor things outside of Open Shift - I'll let him > chime in on what his use cases are to get a better feel for what he's > thinking) > > We need a name ASAP so we can create a repository under the Hawkular > github namespace and put the code up there so people can start working on > it.
