-----------------------------------------

Hi Eric,

I'm hoping to get involved in the Summer of Code event and I would like to help enhance Accumulo.  I noticed that several of the issues flagged as SoC ideas mostly revolve around shortcomings of Accumulo's monitor application.  I think that the introduction of a new monitor to Accumulo is the way to go, and it would be a perfect project for SoC.  I do not have an existing monitoring framework in mind for this, but that research on my part can be performed before I submit my proposal.

Let me know what I need to do to start discussing my ideas and possible directions for this project with the Accumulo community.

Thank you,

Andres

> The monitor is awesome.  It should die.
> I'm going to move other monitor tickets under this one (if I can), and create some requirement tickets.
> We would be better off putting our weight behind an existing monitoring program which can scale, if one exists.
> Hopefully we can combine tracing efforts and have a nicer distributed trace-based tool, too.
> For display functionality, lots of possibilities: Graphite, Cubism.js, D3.js (really, any number of really slick Javascript graphing libraries). For log collection, any number of distributed log management services out there too can serve as inspiration for functionality: statsd, logstash, cacti/rrdtool.
> Currently all of Accumulo monitoring information is exposed via JMX; a nice balance could be found leveraging the existing monitoring capabilities with JMXTrans (or equivalent) and applying a new GUI.
> Familiarity with Java and JMX would be ideal.
