I'm in the process of implementing a piranha (nanny/pulse) solution,
chosen because it's the "default" on our O/S of choice (CentOS), has
easy-to-follow set up documentation, and seems easy to set up. I have a
whole bunch of stuff to get off the ground yesterday and didn't have the
free cycles to investigate any alternatives.

So, I'd be interested in some discussion about this too, ie. the
differences between nanny/pulse, ldirectord/heartbeat, keepalived, other
solutions?
