SmokePing Adds Great Latency Measurement to the Open Source Monitoring Equation

Via InfoWorld: SmokePing Adds Great Latency Measurement to the Open Source Monitoring Equation.

A few months ago, I wrote about Tobias Oetiker's MRTG and RRDTool services -- which are really leading the charge in collecting / visualizing network monitoring data.

Another tool by Oetiker and his colleagues that's seeing a lot of traction these days is SmokePing, a latency measurement tool that uses RRDtool as the database and graphing back-end.
