ECN-Viewer

Browser-Based Control Plane for PoT

ECN-Viewer is the browser-based control plane for Datasance PoT. It mirrors nearly every potctl capability—deploying applications, editing resources, inspecting telemetry, and opening remote shells—without requiring local tooling.

Overview

ECN-Viewer provides a comprehensive web-based interface for managing and monitoring your Edge Compute Networks. It's served directly by the Controller and provides the same RBAC and audit capabilities as potctl.

Key Features

• No Local Tooling Required: Access your ECN from any browser
• Full Resource Management: Deploy, edit, and manage all PoT resources
• Real-time Monitoring: View ECN health, capacity, and activity timelines
• Agent Fleet Management: Inspect and manage all Agents with remote terminals
• Application Management: Deploy, start/stop, scale, and reroute traffic
• Resource Editors: Dedicated editors for ConfigMaps, Secrets, Volumes, Certificates
• REST API Explorer: Embedded REST client for advanced API operations
• Events and Auditing: Track and audit all Controller API calls

Access

The Viewer is served directly by the Controller. Configure the HTTP/S port with the VIEWER_PORT environment variable (defaults to 80).

Authentication and authorization follow the same Keycloak-backed RBAC rules as potctl, so users only see and manage namespaces permitted by their role.
