I love these real-world scenario articles - thanks for sharing!

What do you use for monitoring? We use NewRelic, but the price doesn't scale well, so are looking at setting up Nagios.

We use Airbrake and Skylight and Timber as our main tools in this arena. In addition to pricing scale like you've mentioned, I ran into some issues with the script New Relic was injecting early on in the project when I was trying to optimize performance. There may have been other ways to include the service but I wound up just going in a different direction at the time and it's worked out well.
