Linux-HA a enfanté un nouveau projet concernant la #supervision scalable.
Ayant utilisé quelques temps Nedi ▻http://www.nedi.ch, j’ai bien vu que sur de gros environnements, ça pouvait devenir lourd et intrusif.
Avec l’essor des architectures Cloud, potentiellement très large et changeantes, il y a besoin de quelque chose de nouveau.
J’avais déjà vu passé Sensu ▻http://sensuapp.org, et là je suis tombé sur The assimilation project, plus bas niveau.
Voici leur résumé :
We provide open source discovery with zero network footprint integrated with highly-scalable monitoring.
What we do: Continually discover and monitor systems, services, switches and dependencies with very low human and network overhead
Discover systems, services, switches and dependencies using zero network footprint techniques
Monitor systems and services with very low overhead and extreme scalability
Make monitoring easy to configure and manage
The Assimilation Project is designed to discover and monitor infrastructure, services, and dependencies on a network of potentially unlimited size, without significant growth in centralized resources. The work of discovery and monitoring is delegated uniformly in tiny pieces to the various machines in a network-aware topology - minimizing network overhead and being naturally geographically sensitive.
The main ideas are:
- distribute discovery throughout the network, doing most discovery locally
- distribute the monitoring as broadly as possible in a network-aware fashion.
- use autoconfiguration and zero-network-footprint discovery techniques to simplify monitoring configuration during the initial installation and during ongoing system addition and maintenance.
