And what color pony do you want with that?
Seriously, given the incredibly wide range of applications, situations,
SLAs, services, constraints, conditions, and requirements, I think the
idea that a single tool will solve everyone's problems is, well, nothing
short of ludicrous.
By making /everything/ modular and extensible, and having the monitoring
platform be a framework which individual components are natively plugged
in to, everything from data collection, to presentation, reporting or
responding . That's what the proposal seems to boil down to. It's
something we're sadly lacking with most monitoring solutions that I've
ever seen. It's almost entirely 'their way or the high way', with a few
bolt-ons on the side, fudged into place just to get by (with all the
unreliability and risk that implies)
