Road Map
--------

Note 1: This road-map is still evolving and subject to change without notice.

Architecture Refactor
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Goals
^^^^^

. Reduce load on the file system. Sqlite3 files on network filesystem can be
  a burden.
. Reduce number of servers and frequency of start/stop. This is mostly an
  issue of clutter but also a reduction in "moving parts".
. Coalesce activities to a single home host where possible. Give the user
  feedback that they have started the dashboard on a host other than the
  home host.
. Reduce number of processes involved in managing running tests.

Changes Needed
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

. ACID compliant db will be on /tmp and synced to megatest.db with a five
  second max delay.
. Read/writes to db for processes on homehost will go direct to /tmp
  megatest.db file.
. Read/wites fron non-homehost processes will go through one server. Bulk
  reads (e.g. for dashboard or list-runs) will be cached on the current host
  in /tmp and synced from the home megatest.db in the testsuite area.
. Db syncs rely on the target db file timestame minus some margin.
. Since bulk reads do not use the server we can switch to simple RPC for the
  network transport.
. Test running manager process extended to manage multiple running tests.
