Author here.<p>I've put together a write-up of the various stages of IT monitoring maturity most organizations go through. Feedback is always welcome.<p>WHAT: It includes the various types of monitoring, main coverage points, and typical implementation approaches and protocols involved. I also mention a few of the most commonly overlooked items in each stage.<p>WHY: I find it useful to understand the various key stages so that I can recognize where an organization is in its level of maturity, as well to introduce some tangible milestones around where the stakeholders want to go.<p>Perhaps a few of you will find it useful.<p>Feel free to share/re-post/distribute within your organization. Feel free to comment here, on the post, or drop me a note privately if that's more your thing.
