  1. Monitoring with Open Source Erik A. Dahl Co-Founder & CTO Zenoss, Inc.

  2. The Power of Open Source 20% of EnterpriseServers 20% of NewDatabases Open-source software is a catalyst that will restructure the industry, producing higher-quality software at lower cost. $420M Acquisition Gartner Research Market Leader inNetwork Security 600 Customers in18 Months

  3. Ingredients for OSS Disruption • Large, Mature Market • Operating Systems, Databases, CRM, etc • Dominated by a Few, Traditional Vendors • Microsoft, Oracle, Siebel • Heavy, Over-Engineered Product • Lots of rarely used features • Technical End User to Drive the Adoption Process • IT Administrators

  4. Enterprise Management is Next • Big Enterprise Suites “Big 4” • IBM Tivoli, CA Unicenter, BMC, HP Open View • Too Complex (Less than 50% Features Used) • Too Expensive (> $100k) • Commercial Open Source “Little 4” • Groundwork, Hyperic, OpenQRM, Zenoss • Power of Open Source • 80% of the features 20% of the cost • Low End Commercial Products • What’s Up Gold, Solar Winds, IpMonitor • Cheap but Too Simple
