Similarly, one can integrate CAIDA's BGPStream Broker Service[1] into
their own tools.  Like bgpalerter above, working with open source or
rolling your own tools is increasingly straightforward[2] due to these
community projects.  

Another viable project to keep an eye on is ARTEMIS[3] for monitoring.
