Abstract: Increased complexity in media facilities means an increased need for better monitoring and management tools. Today, the workflows and technologies of general-purpose IT hardware and software are relevant to air-chain media environments and fast turnaround production. But, in many media facilities, these capabilities—already “baked in” to the servers and networks supporting operations—are misunderstood or under-utilized. This paper presents an overview of the technologies and architectures of IT system monitoring with a focus on how these are applicable to media systems. Standards such as SNMP, WBEM and EMS are useful for enabling both active and passive system monitoring architectures. A “system of systems” approach to system monitoring is a best-practice methodology for monitoring complex media environments.
