monitoring: what I want

I've recently shifted from a straight engineering job to a job with a "dev/ops" title. What I have discovered in operations land depresses me. The shoemaker's children are going unshod. Operations software is terrible.

What's driving me craziest right now is my monitoring system.

What I have right now is Nagios.

1. Your class can be no longer than 100 lines of code.
2. Your methods can be no longer than five lines of code.
3. You can pass no more than four parameters and you can’t just make it one big hash.
4. When a call comes into your Rails controller, you can only instantiate one object to do whatever it is that needs to be done. And your view can only know about one instance variable.

You can break these rules if you can talk your pair into agreeing with you.
