Hi Tim, We have happy SPM for Cassandra users who are using SPM for monitoring, alerting, and anomaly detection for their Cassandra clusters. SPM agents phone home by definition if you are using the Cloud version. The On Premise / AWS AMI versions do not phone home. See: http://sematext.com/spm

Your criteria for what is appropriate for production may differ from others, but it's equally incorrect of you to make a blanket statement that OpsCenter isn't suitable for production. A number of people use it in production. On Tue, Oct 28, 2014 at 11:48 AM, Colin wrote: > No, actually, you

No, actually, you cant Tyler. If you mean the useless information it provides outside of licence, fine, if you mean the components outside, then same argument. Last time i checked, this forumn was about apache and not about datastax. Maybe a separate group should be deducated to provider spec

OpsCenter does work with Apache Cassandra however it isn't always immediately compatible with new releases of Cassandra. It will work somewhat with Cassandra 2.1 but there is definitely some functionality that is broken. You can check the release notes for new versions of OpsCenter to monitor when

I cant run opscenter in a secure environment for a couple of reasons, one - it phones home, two - lack of role based security. It is a mistake to call a proprietary piece of software community when you cant use it in production. It is easy enough to automate what opscenter does rather than rely

Yes Opscenter does work with the opensource version of Cassandra. I am currently running both in the cloud and our private datacenter with no problems. I have not tried 2.1.1 yet but I do not see why it wouldn’t work also. Josh From: Tim Dunphy [mailto:bluethu...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, Octob
