This project is in early development stage
Orchestra is a Django-based framework for building web hosting control panels.
There are a lot of widely used open source hosting control panels, however, none of them seems apropiate when you already have an existing service infrastructure or simply you want your services to run on a particular architecture.
The goal of this project is to provide the tools for easily build a fully featured control panel that is not tied to any particular service architecture.
Django-orchestra is mostly a bunch of plugable applications providing common functionalities, like service management, resource monitoring or billing.
The admin interface relies on Django Admin, but enhaced with Django Admin Tools and Django Fluent Dashboard. Django REST Framework is used for the REST API, with it you can build your client-side custom user interface.
Every app is reusable, this means that you can add any Orchestra application into your Django project INSTALLED_APPS strigh away.
However, Orchestra also provides glue, tools and patterns that you may find very convinient to use. Checkout the documentation if you want to know more.
This deployment is not suitable for production but more than enough for checking out this project.
