thruk Cookbook

Thruk is a multibackend monitoring web interface which currently
supports Nagios, Icinga and Shinken as backend using the Livestatus
API. It is designed to be a drop in replacement and covers almost all
of the original features plus adds additional enhancements for large
installations.

See http://www.thruk.org/ for more information.
