| I also think the "sex appeal" or buzz associated with open
| source IT infrastructure monitoring solutions still pales in
| comparison to other areas where open source technologies have
| forged further into the mainstream - the "P" languages,
| application and web servers, databases, Linux commodity boxes,
| etc. The technology may be fantastic and scalable and a
| legitimate alternative to proprietary stalwarts, but there's
| always the tendency of people to follow the herd and go
| with what they know - it's the whole tipping-point idea -
| and I think it's not too far off.
