Hi all, I am embarking upon a project to monitor our network from external sources. I am looking to test the availability of our system from multiple locations, report on route health, endpoint connectivity, etc. Most of this will be done via HTTP POST connections (for reasons that I cannot detail, but that is how our customer-facing systems work).
I have looked at Keynote/RedAlert, Gomez, and a few other third parties. However, I can't help but think that I am better off doing it myself. My thought was to get virtual servers from various hosting companies (Linode, Vereo, GoDaddy, etc.) so that they are geographically and network diversified, and deploy something like ZenOSS, Zabbix, or GroundworkIT on each to do the testing and centralize the reporting. Does anyone have any thoghts on this? Has anyone done it before (I'm sure someone has)? Discussion anybody? C-Ya, Kenny
