But guest still have one more operation which requires back-end connectivity – database root-enabled reporting [1]. After dealing with it we could finally drop connectivity [2].<br>

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);background-color:transparent;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline"> My first suggestion was to extend conductor API [3] to let conductor write report to Trove back-end. Until Trove would reach state when it would support multiple datastore (databases) types current patch would work fine [4], but when Trove would deliver, suppose, Database (without ACL) it would be confusing when after instance provisioning user will find out that some how root was enabled, but Database doesn't have any ACL at all.</span></p>

And Trove server-side (taskmanager) must stay generic and perform preparation tasks, which are independent from datastore type.<br>
