To align with standard practices in cloud storage solutions and enhance user experience, this roadmap item proposes a unified dashboard for managing accounts across multiple regions (US1, EU1, AP1). This unified approach aims to simplify account management, reduce user friction, and elevate customer satisfaction.
Problem Statement
Storj operates on a decentralized global network of nodes, emphasizing its position as a truly global solution. Despite this global emphasis, users currently maintain separate accounts and credentials for each Satellite (US1, EU1, and AP1). This fragmentation not only confuses customers but also seems counterintuitive given Storj's global network. Juggling multiple accounts increases the risk of errors and inefficiencies, hindering users from seamlessly accessing their data across the entire network.
Justification
Storj's decentralized global network should provide users with a seamless experience, irrespective of regions. As Storj's user base expands, offering a streamlined and consistent user experience becomes imperative. Introducing this unified dashboard aligns with Storj's global approach and market expectations, simplifying account management and making Storj more attractive to both current and potential customers.
Expected Impact
A unified dashboard with a singular account login for all regions will provide a more intuitive user experience. This enhancement will facilitate easier management of resources and accounts across regions.
In Scope
Design and development of a centralized dashboard for managing accounts across multiple regions.
Creation of a singular account login system that allows access to various satellites.
Refinement of the Satellite web console to showcase region-specific account details and resources.
Comprehensive documentation detailing the features and usage of this new unified system.
Acceptance Criteria
Users should be able to manage accounts across the specified regions (US1, EU1, AP1) using one set of credentials.
The centralized dashboard must facilitate easy region toggling, displaying pertinent account details and resources.
Seamless integration of the single-login mechanism with multiple satellites, ensuring a fluid user experience.
Detailed, user-friendly documentation on the new feature and its functionalities should be available and easily accessible.
