Companion with a streaming alarm engine and a notification engine, -is a northbound REST API users can use to interact with Monasca.

It can be used for deploy application. -Its cfn-hup tool can monitor metadata in VM and notify to heat. But this function is poor now, -we can extend cfn-hup to collect more information inside VM and make failure prediction. - -2.2.1 Cfn-hup -^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - -* Type: 'monitoring issue' -* Description: - - + To-be - - - Cfn-hup is able to collect more metrics than metadata inside VM.
