Zenoss: New dog masters old monitoring tricks 30 November, 2007 12:50:00
Zenoss Core 2.1 impresses with object-based approach, strong device discovery, native Windows monitoring, and open source extensibilitySince the dawn of the business network, there has been a need to ensure that the network services provided to the enterprise are alive and responsive. Traditionally, in midsized businesses, this role has been filled by complex, closed source, and fantastically expensive solutions from manufacturers such as BMC, CA, HP, and IBM. And while these extravagant expenses make no customer happy, many users of these packages also complain of their complexity. Enough administrators have spent enough time wrangling with their monitoring systems to make a lot of smart people imagine that there must be a better way.

Intel on Tuesday will unveil at the O'Reilly Open Source Convention (OSCON) in the US, what it described as a substantial upgrade to Intel Threading Building Blocks. TBB 2.1, a developer tool that features a C++ template library for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux, enables developers to add parallelism to C++.
TBB helps developers implement threading in applications and improves application performance on multicore processors, Intel said. Version 2.1 of TBB makes it easier to apply the tool to new uses such as graphical user interfaces, artificial intelligence, and network input/output.
Task cancellation and exception handling are supported in this latest version. Performance has been improved through algorithms and containers. The release also features improved components for task scheduling and memory allocation, among others. Ease of use has been boosted as well through enhanced APIs.
An affinity partitioner in version 2.1 improves performance in chained parallel operations while a more efficient cache also is highlighted.
Bundled in most Linux OSes and also functioning with Sun Solaris, the commercial product will be available for download Wednesday. An open source version also will be offered.
