Overview of project

Discussion Points:

• What is specific about our project?
• Sue asked: are there projects/apps that can do the work we want without creating one off apps?
  • Can Google Analytics work for us? 
    • We mentioned that REST API's don't
  • Planning on setting up GA in an enterprise setting at NCI.
• Scott gave overview of what our requirements are, reviewing different applications out there.
  • SiteStats
  • Government Analytics site
    • https://analytics.usa.gov/?=dg
  • ELK - Scott gave overview of our preliminary architecture diagram.
  • Sumo Logic - for log aggregation
    • Larry/Sue mentioned that it may be able to use within NCI in a month or two.
    • Similar to filebeats (to collect data)
    • Ability to visualize data in a dashboard (like Kabana)
• Larry mentioned that anyone with an API/website would want this dashboard
• Sue mentioned PowerBI may be able to do the dashboard capabilities.
  • NCI has a whole site license for PowerBI.
  • There are NCI classes to learn PowerBI. 
  • She can send links out if interested.
• Sue suggested a possible solution using the following:
  • Sumo Logic - log aggregation
  • PowerBI - Dashboard - visualization tool for the data
• We will need to specify how long the access logs need to be available.
• We may need to provide authentication into the dashboard tool.
  • PowerBI has LDAP integrated in it already.

Decision Points:

• Sue to send links to PowerBI classes to Scott/Cory.
• Sue will add Scott/Cory to working group - NCI-Cloud DevSecOps Team
• Larry will discuss with security group regarding our usage of IPs
