Inspector is currently a monolithic, single-process service that in order to become HA one day as well as to support upstream effort of WSGI services should be split into API and worker processes.

Thanks! Adding this to 12, as this is a de-scoped version of previously approved https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1288035
This seems less likely to land before Pike M3; just the base patch landed so far, the second patch in the chain is receiving reviews atm, the third however still needs substantial work.
So there's still discussions pending upstream about the fate of inspector being merged with ironic. Setting target release to 14 to be revised after a virtual planning meetup due in ~2weeks from now.
just attaching an alternative implementation of the same, for the record
This was deferred upstream; to be reopened if necessary
