I was writing up a response to a reporter’s questions about the new round of systems management companies (for example, FiveRuns<\/a>, OpenCountry<\/a> [which I haven’t seen yet], Hyperic<\/a>, Qlusters<\/a>, Versiera<\/a>, SourceLabs<\/a>, Splunk<\/a>, Spiceworks<\/a>, the OMC crew<\/a>, etc.) and found myself wanting to type “Systems Management 2.0” as their moniker. I felt cheesy, and avoided it.<\/p>\n

While most of the platforms in that group have much of the spirit and technology of Web 2.0<\/a>, the “2.0 meme” seems a bit tired. I don’t want to be the one to establish that<\/i> phrase.<\/p>\n

What is the Label?<\/h2>\n

That said, increasingly, I need a general label to apply to what I find myself calling “The New Systems Management Folks” or “The New Crop of Systems Management Companies and Projects.” As those two clunky phrased show, I haven’t come up with a good phrase yet.<\/p>\n

For those of you either in that group or who are interested in them, what do you call yourselfs\/them? Or, what phrases do you think would work? Or…does Systems Management 2.0 fit the bill?<\/p>\n

Disclaimer:<\/b> FiveRuns and SourceLabs are clients.<\/p>\n
