Dynamic Policy Manager

The Dynamic Policies Manager component is responsible for the management of the policies related to technical and business performance associated with each application and the detection and prediction of violations of such policies in the running application. In the 1st release of the Dynamic Policy Manager starts to define and send the policy configured to the Monitoring and Logging component. The DPM creates and sends the policy information to the Monitoring and Telemetry component. The monitoring component sends an alert and the values of the violation -if needed- to the Policy Evaluator. The Policy Evaluator sends the alert violation to the Policy Violation Manager.The Policy Violation Manager stores and analyses the violation and if the remediation action is provided by itself; it then sends the remediation action to the Job Manager otherwise the Policy Violation Manager sends a request of the suggested action to the intelligence block.

Run a local instance without authn and authz and using a default sqlite db

cd src
python -m polman.cli.main --db-url sqlite:///./dpm.db --verbosity 3 --authn-skip true --authz-skip true

The parameters can be passed also through env variables

E.g.:

DPLM_DB_TYPE=mysql
DPLM_DB_HOST=localhost
DPLM_DB_USER=root
DPLM_DB_PASSWORD=root
DPLM_DB_PORT=3306
DPLM_DB_NAME=dpm

DPLM_AUTHN_CLIENT_SECRET=xxxx
DPLM_AUTHN_CLIENT_ID=shell-backend
DPLM_AUTHN_SERVER=https://keycloak.dev.icos.91.109.56.214.sslip.io/
DPLM_AUTHN_REALM=icos-dev
DPLM_AUTHZ_SKIP=true
