Description

An administrator currently have to take a heap dump to learn what data is in ZooKeeper data tree, which is not really great. We could add some browser UI for ZooKeeper data tree and probably more, such as ZK metrics.

It might be possible to reuse ZooKeeper Exhibitor, but we need to research a little bit to know if we can integrate our authentication layer into it so that only an administrator can access it.

Research direction

Start by researching ZooKeeper Exhibitor and how Central Dogma's authentication layer could protect an administrator-only browser UI. Define the integration boundary and verify that ZooKeeper data-tree browsing, along with any included metrics, is accessible only to administrators.
