cfbrain - 2008/2009

In an autonomic system, computers can either work independently or with a centralized brain to collate and analyse the data observed by the distributed collective. The tools for building this already exist in cfengine, but not within easy reach of the average user. Cfbrain will provide you with in-depth diagnostic analysis of your cfengine hosts and assist you in interpreting data that are observed. You will no longer have to rely on primitive trace visualizations, with no context or history to interpret them.
