Congratulations to the Hyperic crew for landing CNET as a client. (http://blogs.cnet.com/8301-13505_1-9865828-16.html?part=rss&tag=feed&subj=TheOpe nRoad)

Hyperic Inc., a leading open source web infrastructure management software provider, today announced that CNET Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ:CNET), a leading interactive media company, will standardize its systems and application management on Hyperic HQ Enterprise across all its web properties. When the CNET implementation is complete, Hyperic will be deployed across thousands of live Linux servers throughout CNET's data centers.

Nice to see open source management for open source systems:

Hyperic will replace CNET's homegrown management platform which was based on several other open source technologies. Hyperic gives CNET more functionality than its previous solution, including scalability, usability, and virtualization management capabilities that help the company to stay on top of its highly customized web application infrastructure that includes large deployments of Linux, MySQL, Apache, and Resin Application Servers.
