Is it? I didn't know it. I thought it was interesting because it didn't required installing anything, or even signing up for an account. I wasn't aware that traditionally monitoring systems worked by submitting JSON data.

Consider my comment invalid from now.

I think you are right that the "really traditional" monitoring system like Nagios or Munin only work through agents and plugins. Some of the hosted systems have centralized APIs. But, to my knowledge, they all use the metric concept ((name, value) pairs) and it's why I called it "traditional".

Oh, right. I don't like that. Mondash does it and it is not good.
