Horizon REST API + client

What is Horizon?

Horizon is an application that implements simple HWM Store. Right now it includes:

• REST API

• Python client

Goals

• Allow users to save and fetch High Water Mark (HWM) items. These are name+type+value triples with few optional fields.

• Avoid confusion between different user’s data by separating HWMs to different namespaces. Each HWM is bound to namespace.

• Allow users to get HWM change history, to determine who and when changed a specific HWM value and other fields.

• Provide RBAC model to ensure that interaction with HWMs and Namespaces are governed by role assigned to each user. Roles are assigned per namespace.

Non-goals

• This is not a data storage, it is not designed to store raw table rows. It is designed to store only HWM values.

• Attaching machine-readable metadata for HWMs (like process, origin) is not supported. This should be stored somewhere else.
