Hi Joshua,
What kind of monitoring are we talking about ? Network services,
performance, traffic, latency, ... ?
You might want to take a look at some popular Open Source tools, such as:
http://www.nagios.org/
http://www.zabbix.com/
http://www.hyperic.com/
http://www.opennms.org/wiki/Main_Page
http://www.cacti.net/
http://oss.oetiker.ch/smokeping/
... to get an idea of what's possible.
Cheers,
Phil
