My company is deploying different services to more than 100 servers on 4 different locations. Those services are pretty much running by themselves once setup correctly. Our customers are on different time zones and they use our service 24 hours 7 days per week base.
Therefore I am assigned to start a "Network Monitoring" project to setup/create or purchase a set of tools to monitor all servers and report issues to support teams if there is anything going wrong. Such system also need to be able to generate reports to show the historical data to allow development team to do enhancement later.
We plan to have the system to ready to use in next 30 days and it should be able to handle 100-150 nodes.
Now let us review my project requirement with SMART goals.
