Cacti is designed to be a complete graphing solution for your network. Its goal is to make the
network administrator's job easier by taking care of all the necessary details necessary to create
meaningful network graphs.
The design of Cacti took many hours of SQL and PHP coding, so I hope you find it very useful.
Developer Thanks
- Andy Blyler, for ideas, code, and that much needed overall support during really lengthy coding sessions.
- Rivo Nurges, for that c-based poller that was talked so long about. This really fast poller is what will enable Cacti to make its way into larger and larger networks.
Thanks
- A very special thanks to Tobi Oetiker, the creator of RRDTool and the very popular MRTG.
- Brady Alleman, creator of NetMRG and Treehouse Technolgies for questions and ideas. Just as a note, NetMRG is a complete Network Monitoring solution also written in PHP/MySQL. His product also makes use of RRDTool's graphing capabilities, I encourage you to check it out.
- The users of Cacti! Especially anyone who has taken the time to create a bug report, or otherwise help me fix a Cacti-related problem. Also to anyone who has purchased an item from my amazon.com wishlist or donated money via Paypal.
