With the integration of the boost technology, this new concept of remote poller, implemented with the Cacti 1.x release, as well as the new daemon functionality which has been added with the thold plugin, will allow you to build a scalable Cacti performance monitoring environment.
With the migration of the Cacti development platform to GitHub, new features and functionality are being implemented every day. This can be seen by the high number of releases...
