Cloud Cafe #32 Cloud Talk With Hyperic
Thursday, January 29th, 2009In this podcast I had the opportunity to talk to Javier Soltero the CEO of Hyperic. Javier did a great job explaining how “Hyperic’s got Cloud.” We talked about a number of new solutions that Hyperic has been quietly solving on the monitoring side of cloud autonomics. Here are some of the topic [...]
jcollectd – Java integration for collectd
Friday, January 16th, 2009Randy Bias, VP – Technology Strategy at GoGrid caught this little ditty this afternoon. This has potential for the enterprise, IMHO. Hyperic is doing the cloud thing the right way. Collectd is a core component of RightScale’s autonomic cloud solutions.

Hyperic – Top 20 Companies to Watch in 2009
Friday, January 9th, 2009I thought Linux magazine’s top 20 companies to watch this year was pretty lame this year. However, a shinning bright spot goes to the good folk over at Hyperic.

The Mighty Two in the Cloud
Wednesday, November 12th, 2008Some times my Irish temper gets flaring when I see the cloud-o-sphere serving “stupid” for breakfast. In the past I typically go off and open my big yap and regret it after the fact. Case in point, yesterday eWeek was slopping out stupid when they wrote an article describing how Hyperic and Rightscale are competitors [...]
Everything is a Freaking DNS problem
Wednesday, September 24th, 2008I freaking love that title for a blog. Kris Buytaert asks a really good question regarding VC and the “Little 4.”
Systems management, what will happen when the VCs want their money ?
Do we need a cloud standard or just one good old IT management standard?
Tuesday, July 1st, 2008It is my belief that what we today call the “cloud” will really just evolve into a complex IT infrastructure of the future, and in the end, will just be referred to as infrastructure. There is no doubt the traditional IT landscape of the last 20 years is going through a substantial transformation on [...]
Taking the Hype out of Hyperic’s new Cloudstatus.
Monday, June 23rd, 2008Ok boys, slow down a bit there. I know we are all in a hurry to capitalize on the new industry buzz around the “Clouds”. However, after taking a brief look at Hyperic’s new CloudStatus, it looks like they are riding on all the “hype” associated with the cloud rather than looking for [...]
Open Source Monitoring and The Art of War
Thursday, June 19th, 2008I get this question a lot when I visit a Tivoli customer…
We are thinking of looking at that Open Source vendor you are always talking about for some of our servers.
Then I ask them which one and they say jeez I can’t remember the name. Then I rattle off a few of the [...]

The “Mighty” Have Been Demoted
Friday, May 9th, 2008William Vambenepe makes a good point on who should really be called the “Mighty” (Oracle, Microsoft, EMC) in his recent post. Sorry guys I guess it’s back to the “Little’s” again.
Next Week Home in the Clouds
Thursday, May 8th, 2008I will be presenting at two local Atlanta meetings next week on “Cloud” stuff. On Tuesday night we will be running the first AWSome meeting. David Wright, the author of JungleDisk, will also be giving a prestation on his product and AWS. Then on Thursday night I have been invited by Mike Schinkel, [...]
The Mighty “2.5″
Tuesday, May 6th, 2008Let’s say it was all the travel, maybe all the different time zones in 2 1/2 weeks. Add the “Wrath of Con” Tarus Balog with his relentless “Mouth of Open Source” might. I don’t know, I can’t think straight anymore. Therefore in my wisdom of all things known to be “Mighty” I therefore declare OpenNMS [...]
April 2008 Review Post
Tuesday, May 6th, 2008The end of April has been a little crazy with me traveling to Japan, Australia, and Poland all in three weeks. However my “No Country for Old IT Guys” thread has been getting quite a bit of activity.
The month started with my first Cloud Café Podcast featuring James Urquhart of Cassatt and later [...]
Why Only Two?
Friday, April 25th, 2008A few people have asked my why only two for my “Mighty Two”. I have been specifically asked why not OpenNMS and Nagios The simple answer is that Hyperic and Zenoss are software companies and OpenNMS and Nagios are projects. Both Hyperic and Zenoss both have software company infrastructures. This means they have full time [...]
The Mighty Two – Zenoss
Monday, April 21st, 2008And then their were two…
With Qlusters gone and IMHO, Groundwork feeding off the bottom there are only two commercially viable open source enterprise systems management (ESM) monitoring tools left on the market. Back in Feburary I did a post about Hyperic and now I wanted to get up to speed on the other – [...]
