Everyone Loves Monitoring

Abstract:

About how we changed from an old monitoring monster to a monitoring pipeline based on Sensu, Graphite, GDash, RabbitMQ, Pagerduty and friends.

We have got much better involvement from developers and a more engaged management. Developers are now sending data to the monitor pipeline directly from the applications, everything is easy graphable, we have furnished the office with monitoring screens and management loves the graphs and status updates. And we are spending much less time on monitoring but have much better control.

A short talk about how it happened and the result of the change
