[Fiware-cloud] [FIWARE.Cloud] Overview of the Monitoring information in the portal

[Lorenzo Cantelmi]

Hi Alex, Fernando, 

you can find here a quick list of Nagios Core feature s, which could be extended via a plug-in system. 

Anyway there are other more complete systems that natively allow you to have an enterprise grade network monitoring and network management (so SNMP and network devices included), not only limited to services, which could be more suitable for production and testbed facility. In details, I am referring to OpenNMS and ZenOSS, that are truly distributed, scalable platform for all aspects of the FCAPS network management model. 

I let you notice that for OpenNMS is available a demo at their website . 

In order to have a comparison between all of them, I have found a good report (dated 2008), where at end "goodies" and "baddies" are summarized. 

Hope to be helpful. 

Best Regards, 

Lorenzo

> Dear Alex at all,

> How you can see, and how we discuss previously, there was an interest

> portal to it.

> The question is, if we planned to offer this information (related to

> the cloud portal or no and if the question is true if there is any
> way (using
> an API for example) to access to it and revoker information in order
> to show
> it in the Cloud Portal, like I show you in the slides.
