We looked at opentsdb and the problem is that we can't find any
tcollector besides the one here: http://opentsdb.net/tcollector.html
So if you want to monitor haproxy or mongo / riak, etc... you'll have
to write them. You can find ganglia gmetric for pretty much
everything.

This is in addition to what they can monitor at the individual server level, if you're also including that as well.
