[Pacemaker] Announcing release 0.1.0 of the Assimilation Monitoring Project!

[Alan Robertson]

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 (predecessor to Pacemaker) 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.

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.
