Keeping an eye on everything running is a fairly major subsystem of the 
network of machines. (We need machines physically in various cities for 
reasons I'm not yet allowed to describe.) But since I've done this kind 
of thing a couple times before (well, not to this scale, but...), I knew 
the basic setup we needed.

I was actually thinking about writing it up, in a sort of "how to design 
a mid-sized distributed management system" sort of way. Certainly 
nothing at a google or amazon level, but the sort of thing that a 
handful of people at a startup would like to know.
