PolyMon

Plans are under way for the next major version of PolyMon (2.x).

Based on a few years of community feedback the next version of PolyMon will be a major overhaul of the entire code base.

A lot of the planned features and architecture can be found in the PolyMon 2.x Roadmaps link box on this blog.

Some of the major enhancements will be in the tighter and more advanced PowerShell integration as well as a far more open architecture, enhanced scheduling and alerting, fully customizable dashboards, etc.

Thank you to all the PolyMon users and contributors that are driving this project into exciting new directions.

If you have any suggestions, feedback or would like to help, please let us know. Just post your comments on this blog, email me, or use the discussion board in the PolyMon project (hosted in CodePlex).

I have decided to re-start the (old) PolyMon blog on Blogger instead of Wordpress.

The old blog had died down anyway because I was not keeping it up and most of the conversations regarding PolyMon have been happening in the various PolyMon CodePlex projects (PolyMon, PolyMonRT and PolyMon Controls).

My decision to move to Blogger is based on just how many web "applications" I use through Google - iGoogle, GMail, Voice, Analytics, Reader, Picassa, Sites, etc.

This blog will not be just about PolyMon specifically, but I will occasionally also write up technical stuff I have figured out while working on the PolyMon projects.

Please note that PolyMon is based on .NET, SQL Server and PowerShell so the majority of technical posts are going to be centered around these technologies.
