Announcing Tessen, the Sensu call-home service

Tessen is opt-in for the current version of Sensu, but will be opt out in Sensu Go (ICYMI, here’s our product roadmap, including the GA release date). Here’s what you need to know, including what we’re collecting and how that data benefits the Sensu Community.

BOO! Does Network Management Give You the Shivers?

Just like the goblins, ghouls, and ghosts that’ll be walking down your street tomorrow night, network management can be scary.
