[Xymon] MAPÉ - Monitoring App Page Extension

[Galen Johnson]

While the main view/non-green view may seem outdated, it's the very simplicity of it that is attractive.  Compare to Nagios or Hyperic or pretty much any other solution...you have a simple, at a glance view of exactly where your problems are. Admittedly, it does lose a bit when you have hundreds (thousands) of machines but it is still one of the primary comparisons I use for other vendors that come in and want to replace Xymon.  

That said, I find the mind map view that you've chosen to be interesting.  It could also be a heat map view like http://finviz.com/map.ashx (I kinda prefer this due to it's simplicity).

Howdy All,

We're working on a new (animated) front-end for Xymon which allows you to have different views into your environment.
It's called "MAPÉ" (pronounced: MAP-EE).

The project was started because the default "Main View" / "Non-green" view is quite outdated and such a great monitoring system needs a new face.
We would love to get some feedback on the current screenshots and the roadmap (preferably on the mailing list).

Instead of subjecting everyone to screenshots, you can take a look at it: http://mape.hack.co.za

The first milestone has been reached with a dynamic / animated tree and will be up for download once we got a bit of discussion going around where we should be headed.

Regards,
Cami
