Last week I had the pleasure of representing the Icinga Team by attending the San Francisco Bay Area LSPE Meetup (Large-Scale Production Engineering) for their “Not Nagios” event which was held at Yahoo’s URL café at Yahoo HQ in Sunnyvale, CA.
I’d like to thank the LSPE organizers and Yahoo for hosting such a great event and give a big shout out to Marius Ducea of Promet Solutions who stepped up and gave his “Monitoring with Icinga” presentation to a crowd of over 70 IT professionals from all over Silicon Valley and the surrounding area. It’s meeting users like him, who are motivated enough by what we are doing to volunteer themselves to become our grassroots advocates, that truly makes being a part of the Icinga Team a wonderful experience.
Most of all, thanks to those of you who attended – it was great to meet all of you during such a relaxed and informative evening and I certainly look forward to doing it again as soon as I can.
I was especially glad for the interest received and for the many good questions that were asked during the Q&A portion that followed.
If you weren’t able to attend or need a refresher, check out Marius’ presentation slides “Monitoring with Icinga” or watch a video of the entire event that was taken by attendee KC Leung. The video is particularly handy because it also contains the other two presentations of the night which included Cacti in large environments and JMX trans, both of which offered much to learn.
