Change never-cache-regions setting into the positive: cache-regions #180

Closed JimTharioAmazon closed 2 years ago

JimTharioAmazon commented 3 years ago

Currently, we indicate which regions in the account to not scan for inventory that is maintained in the content table. The problem with this approach is that new regions will be cached as they're introduced and the operator must update that setting to exclude them.

We should turn this into cache-regions and list the region names to scan for inventory, which would not require updating when new regions are introduced in AWS.

This change requires minor UI adjustments, and probably a change to the setting name. The bulk of this change would be required in back-end node collection.

Provide a group of checkboxes or multi-select list of valid regions on the UI. This will help users manage the list of scanned regions. Today we use a freeform text field.

Settings key is inventory-regions stored as a list.

We need an update to the default settings custom resource to upgrade the never-cache-regions into the inventory-regions value.
