Hyperic 3.2 update

TAGS: Open Source

Hyperic has announced a new major version of their HQ monitoring system that adds plenty of new capabilities. HQ enables companies with a web infrastructure to monitor all the various components of the stack, whether open source, closed or a mix. For example, HQ can monitor Windows, IIS, MySQL, and JBoss. Or whatever combination you have in your environment.

The latest release also enables users to incorporate existing Nagios scripts and now uses MySQL as the back end database. The combination of HQ and MySQL has been used to track 1.5 million metrics per minute with plenty of headroom for growth. Hyperic HQ is open source and you can download it and test it out yourself to see if it helps your web operations team.

Hyperic is used by a growing number of sophisticated Web 2.0 and Enterprise 2.0 web-based applications including CNet, eHarmony, Net-a-porter and others.
