If you want to do some performance monitoring, here are some tools.

Canary is an OpenStack service we wrote for accessing statistics stored in RRD format (generally collected by `collectd`), under the Apache 2.0 license. Canary adds the ability to see real-time graphs of host statistics in the Horizon dashboard as well as the ability to query stats via the nova API / novaclient.

A blog post from Piotr Siwczak of Mirantis entitled Some practical considerations for monitoring in OpenStack cloud also mentions the following tools:

* Nagios
* Ganglia (supports sFlow)
* Cacti
* Zabbix
* Zenoss ZenPack for OpenStack
* sFlowTrend
