Cloudstack monitoring
Hello Everyone,
Im looking for a Cloudstack monitoring solution to use in a production environment for Kumo a public cloud service provider in Colombia, currently we use Zenoss but we want to change to a different solution, does anyone can recommend any solution , product , service anything? it does not matter if it is open source or not. Or do anyone have any insight on how monitoring should be done in cloudstack?
Thank you for your help

The devops community is big on open source monitoring tools.

A bit dated but has links and leads to lots of various software components that people stitch together to get their monitoring infrastructure.

Thank you willard for your answer, we know Zenoss is a good product but we want to explore other alternatives, could you or anyone elaborate on the pros and cons of the different monitoring products that are available?
Thank You

My organization uses Zenoss as our monitoring solution. We leverage the good, but horribly documented, API to automate the addition/deletion of new VM’s/devices. Minimizing the management requirements of the monitoring solution. Aside from Zenoss, Zabbix, Nagios, and Pandora are all good choices. Each, has their pro’s and con’s.
You’re always going to face management problems in a public cloud. one quick and dirty way to ensure easy management would be to enable SNMP polling on all of your templates and monitor your entire public block. It’s lazy, but it would minimize the time need to manage new VM’s in your monitoring solution.
