CONFERENCE ON NAGIOS & OSS MonitoringMay 20th - Bolzano Majority of large enterprise NMS projects fail (HP, BMC, IBM, CA - Gartner 2009)Top 3 reasons for failure 1. Lack of long term maintenance degrades system quality anddrastically reduces the overall usage sending it to a slow butcertain death. 2. Brain drain/system complexity, the solution in place is dependingon a small or very small number of key experts. All people do getsick or change jobs. 3. User complexity, the system is too complicated limiting thenumber of everyday usage.2010-05-18 16.
