Operate
With Grid Data App Manager Every application, registered, configured, and maintained — from one place.
When any Grid Data application starts, it registers itself with a single API call. The App Manager tracks its lifecycle, stores its configuration, and schedules the database housekeeping that keeps the whole estate fast.
The estate's memory
An inventory that maintains itself
Application inventories rot the day they are written. The App Manager’s doesn’t, because it isn’t written — it’s declared by the applications themselves, at startup, through a published registration pattern every family member follows. What you see is what is actually running.
One console answers the questions operators actually ask: what is deployed, where it lives, whether it is healthy, and when its database was last cleaned up.
Self-registration
Applications announce themselves on startup; operators see every deployment, its status, and its metadata — no manual inventory.
Live dashboard
Registry statistics and application health at a glance, with detail pages for overview, database, and metadata.
Central configuration
A key-value configuration store serves per-application settings through a consistent API.
Data retention policies
Per-application, per-table rules — frequency, retain window, advance, vacuum — edited in a simple grid.
Partition maintenance scheduling
Cron-based schedules run each application’s partition maintenance automatically, with last-run status visible.
Secure service-to-service
Keycloak-protected UI and APIs, with dedicated confidential clients for registering applications.
How it works
See it, end to end
An app starts
On first boot it POSTs its registration; business endpoints stay gated until the manager confirms.
The manager confirms
A callback lifts the gate — no restart — and the app appears on the dashboard.
Policies attach
Retention rules and partition-maintenance schedules are configured against the registered app.
Housekeeping runs
The scheduler executes partition maintenance per app, on its cron, and records every run.
Use cases
Where Grid Data App Manager earns its keep
Estate visibility
One screen answering: what is deployed, where, and is it healthy.
Database housekeeping
Retention and partition maintenance across every application — scheduled instead of remembered.
Standardised onboarding
Every new application registers the same way; the pattern is a published implementation guide.
Under the hood
Technology
Current, supported, boring-on-purpose technology — the kind that stays deployable for years.
Better together
Part of the Grid Data Family
Every family application shares one identity platform, one design system, one registration pattern, and one deployment path.
Deploys the applications that then register here.
Registers its retention and partition schedules here.
A registered citizen like every other member.
