Centralized, scalable, resource monitoring system
A method, apparatus, and computer program product are disclosed to provide host-independent resource monitoring for distributed networks. The method includes determining, from a set of jobs, one or more jobs to execute that monitor the status of resources within a distributed network. The method determines one or more environments in which to run the one or more jobs, and instantiates the one or more jobs with one or more environment variables for the determined one or more environments such that the one or more jobs are configured for operation in the determined one or more environments. The method accordingly displays, using a graphical user interface, a job environment matrix including a list of the set of jobs in conjunction with a running status of each of the jobs in each of one or more environments. A corresponding apparatus and computer program product are also provided.

the permission status for each user of the one or more users defines whether the user may modify each of the one or more data resources.
11. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein:
the execution domain is associated with one or more data resources; and
the permission status for each user of the one or more users defines whether the user may view each of the one or more data resources.
12. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the permission status for at least one user of the one or more users is a read-only permission status.
13. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the permission status for at least one user of the one or more users is an administrator permission status.
14. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein:
the one or more computing environments are defined using one or more environment variables; and
executing the one or more resource monitoring jobs comprises instantiating the one or more resource monitoring jobs with the one or more environment variables for the determined one or more computing environments such that the one or more resource monitoring jobs are configured for operation in the determined one or more computing environments.
15. A computer-implemented method comprising:
identifying an execution domain, wherein the execution domain is associated with multiple domain parameters, and wherein the multiple domain parameters describe one or more resource monitoring jobs associated with the execution domain, one or more computing environments associated with the execution domain, and one or more user access permissions associated with the execution domain, and wherein the one or more computing environments describe one or more monitored databases associated with the execution domain;
obtaining a domain parameter modification request, wherein the domain parameter modification request is a request to modify at least one selected domain parameter of the multiple domain parameters; and
updating the execution domain in accordance with the domain parameter modification request.
