2) Is there anything here that doesn’t belong?<br>
3) Is there a different way you would want to see the data here represented?<br>

<div><br></div><div> Hi Liz - it's been really great to see the UX team get involved in changing the UX for Horizon end-users! In my view the conceptual changes, while still in flux in most cases, are fantastic improvements and we're really looking forward to seeing them make it into the code-base.</div>
<div><br></div><div>My thoughts:</div><div><br></div><div>As an operator (admin):</div><div> - It's important for me to understand the status of a few things on the overview page: service, capacity and performance.</div>
<div> -- Service: A simple summary indicator for each high level service (RPC, Database, Compute, Network, etc) based on the details from the System Info panel. The indicator can be something simple like a coloured circle, using red/orange/green.</div>
<div> -- Capacity: I really like the graph charts. Of importance for capacity are current usage, committed resources (ie a summary of the quotas assigned to users) and available resources (ie a summary of the actual resources available). My thinking is that each of these could be plotted on the same graph for each information item. Most of the quota items would be of interest as graphs.</div>
<div> -- Performance: At this stage I'm not sure that we have this kind of data available in the stack, from Ceilometer for instance. But at some stage it'd be great to see some sort of performance stats for the infrastructure.</div>
<div> - I'd ideally like to see any recent actions done that resulted in errors, which project they were for and who did them. The blueprint is here: <a href="https://blueprints.launchpad.net/horizon/+spec/instance-actions-dashboard">https://blueprints.launchpad.net/horizon/+spec/instance-actions-dashboard</a><br>
</div><div><br></div><div>As an end-user:</div><div> - Seeing the capacity as you've already described is good.</div><div> - If there's a way to display basic performance stats for the instances from Ceilometer (if it has such data), that would be amazing.</div>
