Description

Purpose

The Admin API server listens for REST+JSON connections to interface various parts of the LBaaS system and other scripts with the LBaaS database state.

Design

Similar to the main API server it uses an Eventlet WSGI web server frontend with Pecan+WSME to process requests. SQLAlchemy+MySQL is used to access the data store. The main internal difference (apart from the API itself) is the Admin API server doesn't use keystone or gearman.
