Dashboard overview¶

The OpenStack dashboard is a modular Django web application that provides a graphical interface to OpenStack services.

The dashboard is usually deployed through mod_wsgi in Apache. You can modify the dashboard code to make it suitable for different sites.

From a network architecture point of view, this service must be accessible to customers and the public API for each OpenStack service. To use the administrator functionality for other services, it must also connect to Admin API endpoints, which should not be accessible by customers.
