The Check_MK Enterprise Edition has now a new graphical user frontend for displaying metrics time graphs. Instead of using pixeled PNG images it makes use of interactive vector graphics using HTML 5. These graphs do not only look better. They allow you to:
LI:Zoom horitontally using your mouse wheel LI:Zoom vertically by dragging points up and down LI:Scroll horizontally (into past and future) by dragging points left and right LI:Resize a graph using the right bottom corner
If more than one graph is being displayed on the same HTML page then any zoom or shift in time will be synchronzed to all graphs on the same page. Also the reporting uses the new graphing engine and replaces the embedded pixel images by real vector graphics.
A further advantage of the new system is, that in distributed setups no reverse HTTP proxy is needed any longer. The data is being fetched via Livestatus (up-to-date core is neccessary).
