Components

**********
|
|
|
|
Valence follows the typical OpenStack project setup. The components are listed below:
|
|
|
|
valence-api
|
|
-----------
|
|
A pecan based daemon to expose Valence REST APIs. The api service communicates to the controller through AMQP.
|
|
|
|
valence-controller
|
|
--------------
|
|
The controller implements all the handlers for Plasma-api. It reads requests from the AMQP queue, process it and send the reponse back to the caller.
|
|
|
|
valence-ui
|
|
--------
|
|
valence-ui provides a GUI interface to invoke Valence APIs.
