FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.

import Task exposing (Task, andThen)
import Json.Decode exposing (Decoder, int, string, object3, (:=))

import Http

An alerting engine for a metrics & monitoring system.

This is the same approach I wanted in my initial spike, only instead of writing a custom collector & using an existing alerting engine (riemann), I'm proposing using an existing collector (hekad) and writing the alerting engine.
