The video to my talk on server monitoring (“Famous Outages, and How To Not Have Them”) is now available: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6NVapYun0Xc
Thanks to Box for providing the venue and a good crowd, and thanks to the crowd for a great response. The talk is aimed at anyone who is running a production system, large or small. The focus is on how to get good monitoring coverage for a reasonable investment in effort; spiced up with plenty of stories about real-world production outages.
