Re: Monitoring system recommendation

[Guillaume Tournat <guillaume () ironie org>]

Things to notice, as I prefer Zabbix over nagios (real database related, more functionalities) :
- Zabbix actually is open source. You can buy support from them or from partners if you want
- Zabbix can be distributed through central/proxies architecture to scale
- nagios plugins can be adapted for Zabbix, as the later only needs numerical value (no status or text)
