MS SQL Server 2008 Overview

POSTED ON: April 24, 2012 POSTED BY Irina Tihova

MS SQL Server is Microsoft’s product for delivering database functionality. It is used for storing and retrieving information from different applications. It is considered a relational database server and uses T-SQL and ANSI SQL for querying languages. In this article we will focus on the 2008 edition. This is available in 6 different editions as follows:

- Express – intended to be used as a stand-alone solution for lightweight applications; it supports just 1GB of memory, one CPU, and a maximum database size of 4GB (extended to 10 GB in SQL Server 2008 R2)

Generic server monitoring with Monitis & M3


Had I been told to monitor a cat chasing a mouse with Monitis, my answer would have been – “Yes, it’s probably possible”.
With the not-so-recent addition of M3 to the arsenal of monitoring tools Monitis can utilize, it is possible to monitor anything. However this alone is far from being enough. Smart implementations of proper applicative monitoring is what should be practiced.

M3 code refactor & DBI support

POSTED ON: January 27, 2012 POSTED BY Dan Fruehauf

Pluggable M3 (Monitis Monitor Manager) Framework

Who needs an introduction about M3? – Perhaps no one!
After gaining some reputation with M3, providing extra-easy integration of any monitor into Monitis it was time to take it to the next level.

Generally speaking, the work flow of M3 was described in detail in this article.

After some thought and design, we’ve decided it’d be best if M3 was pluggable. Pluggable in terms of being able to easily add execution and parsing plugins.
The interface and behavior of M3 stayed exactly the same, however now it is much easier to obtain data from any source and parse the data the way you want it.
Saying that, it was time to put the new design for a test. We tried to integrate the DBI support into M3.
Guess what – it was much easier than expected!

The simplicity of server monitoring: Monitis & M3

POSTED ON: November 11, 2011 POSTED BY Dan Fruehauf


M3 (Monitis Monitor Manager) framework usage and examples were outlined in a few previous articles:
M3 – introduction
Planning your vacation / HTTP extraction
However we’ve never explained the bits and bytes behind it and what was the initial motivation for implementing it.
This article will outline the motivation, design, implementation and perhaps also the future road map for M3.
Rereading my previous articles I realized that I generated a somewhat steep learning curve for using M3 with the complex examples provided, just because M3 can handle these complex scenarios.
However M3 was created in order to simplify things. I’m going to use an extremely simple example in the following article to explain the way M3 works this time, I promise!
