I think the graphite guys nailed it when they wrote that this is a niche
product. I struggled with cacti, munin, and others until I realized that it
would be better to just roll my own with RRD and PHP so that I got exactly
what I wanted. Outside of small-office situations, there is no one-size-fits
all to monitoring.

Graphite is a valid upgrade path from RRD, rather than a framework around
it. Great suggestion.
