Project Notes
Mod_Gearman is an easy way of distributing active Nagios checks across your network and to increase nagios scalability. Mod-Gearman can even help to reduce the load on a single nagios host, because its much smaller and more efficient in executing checks. Features -------- * Reduce load of your central nagios machine * Make nagios scalable up to thousands of checks per second * Easy distributed setups without configuration overhead * Real loadbalancing across all workers * Real failover for redundant workers * Embedded Perl support for very fast execution of perl scripts * Fast transport of passive check results with included tools like send_gearman and send_multi

Efficient scalability
by vjamoroso, October 31, 2012

Gearman allowed me to quickly and transparently scale out Nagios to 50k services, with very low latency, in a multi site configuration with load-balancing and I was able to keep the master as a VM. Keep up the good work! This is a great utility.



Excellent

I switched from DNX to mod_gearman and it works much better and has more features. I use it on production with 12k active service checks (and auto_reschedule_checks=1). I would definitely recommend it.
