System and network monitoring is one of the many fragmented fields in
computing that could use better integration. Right now, 49 leaders of
the field are meeting in Austin, Texas at a BarCamp under the
sponsorship of BMC Software and its Chief Architect of Open Source
Strategy,
William Hurley.
In addition to Hurley, the BarCamp is organized by Mark Hinkle
of the
Zenoss
open source monitoring project and John Willis
of the
Zabovo
training company.
The BarCamp includes proprietary vendors as well as free software
projects.

Major announcements: a new
Open Management Consortium
will develop standards for a enterprise system monitoring agent and
enterprise monitoring design paterns. The OMC Design Patterns project
plans to create a domain-specific pattern language and a repository
for patterns. The agent, I suppose, will define and provide protocols
for handling the patterns.
