--------------------------------------
Oh, I clicked the wrong link. I didn't realize that there were two different
tickets. Mea culpa.
Personally, I don't think that we'll get to a totally replaced system in the
near future. There's too many specifics in how the monitors does what it does
to allow direct integration with another tool. However, I am envisioning that
these changes would ease integration into other tools. By breaking out each
facet of metrics information that the monitor presents, external tools can
*much* easier integrate and do whatever they want with that data.

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: monitor
> Reporter: Josh Elser

>
> The monitor works well for what it does, but it's very much so cobbled
> together. HTML is hand generated. Static state is used liberally which makes
> testing near impossible. View and controller logic are tightly intertwined
> which also adds to the testability problem.
> I've been working on porting the functionality from the existing monitor to a
> proper rest service using
> [dropwizard|https://dropwizard.github.io/dropwizard/]. It's not completely
> functional yet, but it has a number of improvements of the existing monitor
> code.
> I thought I would post what I have already and let people give some feedback
> if they're interested. Help is always welcome.
