This is a hot topic where I work, however we try to integrate the erlang monitoring into a single interface for all machines and all OSes/apps. From this article it doesn't look like the tool will help observe the VMs from zenoss/zabbix sort of tool etc. Is there a reason someone would prefer to use exometer reports as opposed to managed metric reports from a big monitoring tool? What about watchdog alerts/notifications and formal incident workflows?
Ah, apologies. I point out in the article that we push a lot of our data directly into Datadog, a zenoss/zabbix sort of tool. We get dashboards like the following (this is for a secondary, redundant system and it's not one of the bidders):
Datadog provides the alerting and incident tracking as well, though the latter is a bit lacking and is more or less just cross-over integration with PagerDuty. exometer doesn't report as such. It aggregates and facilitates pushing the data around on fixed schedules.
