By Craig Van Horn -

Hey All,

 

Does anyone know of any way to get better performance of ProRes files on Windows machines? Specifically in CS6.

Do any of these projects assign moods to data flow?

 

Something like happy, sad, in between?

Yeah, it is definitely time consuming. I love the way John Allspaw put it... "We're quite addicted to data pr0n here at Flickr. We've got graphs for pretty much everything, and add graphs all of the time".

 

That's one of the reasons I am leaning towards Graphite, because you don't need to do anything to start sending it more data, just send it and it deals with it. I am hoping I can get Thinkbox to somehow get data out of Deadline into Graphite.

 

Also forgot that Matt's talk at LISA 2010 was pretty awesome too, they do a lot of graphing and monitoring.

Cool info Shawn, will check it out.

Very good book, Also good is Beautiful Visualization. And, even though they aren't directly related to graphing/monitoring, etc are Web Operations (978-1-4493-7744-1) and The Art of Capacity Planning (978-0-51857-8). They talk a _lot_ about graphing and metrics.

 

The Etsy engineering blog is great too.. 

 

 

And Brendan Gregg does some really cool stuff with heat-maps (not temperature), 

 

 

I love this stuff, configuration management, monitoring, graphing, etc. I wish we were entirely Linux shop, as most of this stuff would be so much easier with Linux ;)

This is a very interesting topic that when time permits, I dabble in.

 

Bout 5 years or so ago I read a cool article in ISSA LA by Russ McRee regarding data visualization specific to security.

 

What I got from the article was how data has become basically useless due to the amount and simple nature of it being flat.  His approach was to put it in real time graphics (not graphs) so that one can easily discern data of interest in an active manner.  This was more then just a simple Nagios or Cacti graph but one that had several dimensions to it.

 

I'll try and dig up the article as it was way cool but this is Russ McRees site;

 

 

And a book I came across a few years back about data visualization;

 

Security Data Visualization

by Gregg Conti

ISBN 978-1-59327-143-5

 

It would be cool to have a few monitors setup were each would display certain data types.  Picture the Windows Mystify screen savor but for real and relevant data.

 

Then one for sound were your network would be represented by various sounds and when things start to chime differently, curiosity and interest would peak so that you can investigate.

 

Anyways, this is a bad ass topic and glad you brought it up.

I have been looking at Roambi for reporting and visualizing data.  Has anyone used their platform before?  Any other suggestions?
