Hi all, This announcement is likely to be of interest to people like you who are concerned about availability.
I founded the Linux-HA project in 1998 and led it for nearly 10 years. Back in about November 2010, I announced the beginnings of what would become the Assimilation Monitoring Project on this mailing list. The Assimilation Monitoring project [http://assimmon.org <http://assimmon.org/>] is a new open source monitoring project with a revolutionary architecture. It provides highly scalable [~*/O/*(1)] monitoring driven by integrated continuous Stealth Discovery(TM). This first release is intended as a proof of concept, to demonstrate the architecture, get feedback, add early adopters, and grow the community. The project has basically two thrusts: * It provides /extremely/ scalable exception monitoring (100K servers -- no problem) * It discovers all the details of your infrastructure (servers, services, dependencies, switches, switch port connections, etc.), builds a Neo4j graph database of all the gory details and updates it as things change - without setting off network security alarms. * The two functions are integrated in a way that will permit much easier configuration than traditional systems, and support the creation of simple audits to see if everything is being monitored.
