mgr/dashboard Grafana Configuration Modes

Hi "dashboarders" :)

Apologies for missing the daily calls where this has been raised, but
I'm trying to understand the pro's and cons of the different ways in
which we can enable grafana integration.

As I understand it, we can use either proxy mode or anonymous mode.
However, what I don't understand is the advantages of proxy mode over
anonymous -  so I'm asking for help!

For anonymous I see the following advantages;
+ doesn't need ceph to hold grafana credentials, grafana just has
anonymous mode enabled
+ simplifies the integration (reduces the workaround code)
+ allows the grafana instance to be a shared instance, not solely
dedicated to Ceph
+ admins can easily tweak dashboards (by using admin in the normal
grafana instance)
+ may promote quicker iteration on fine tuning dashboard content
within the community if the dashboards are more easily
editable/manageable

The last two bullet points I see as big advantages to promote
community involvement.

So can anyone highlight the benefits of proxy mode?

Thanks,

Paul C
