Zabbix – ICT monitoring
Reduce the risks associated with unavailability of services and poor performance of your devices.
What is Zabbix?
Zabbix is open-source monitoring software that provides real-time visibility into the performance and availability of your infrastructure and related services.
With its help, you can monitor various aspects of your IT infrastructure, including servers, applications, network devices and services. Zabbix consists of a server part and one or more agents that run on the devices you want to monitor. A Zabbix server can be hosted on most Linux distributions such as CentOS or Ubuntu.
The biggest advantages of Zabbix solutions include:
- Data Visualization - People can easily get lost in a large jumble of data, so Zabbix allows you to aggregate metrics into trends and create graphs from them. With tailored dashboards, you can keep track of what you care about most. You can also create a diagram of your network infrastructure in the form of Zabbix maps.
- Automated notifications - Zabbix supports sending notifications via various channels such as email or SMS. If you use a ticketing system for incident management, you can integrate incidents using customizable JavaScript webhooks. Support for the most popular ITSM systems like ServiceNow, Zendesk or Jira is a given.
- Multi-platform support - Zabbix is compatible with a variety of platforms such as Linux, Windows, Solaris, AIX, BSD and more, allowing you to monitor the performance and availability of your IT infrastructure regardless of operating system. You can monitor network elements and other hardware devices using SNMP
- Easy installation and configuration - Zabbix can be deployed in different ways such as official packages, docker or you can use the full cloud option. Installation is also possible from a pre-configured virtual appliance. With the help of templates that are military available for download you can monitor thousands of devices without the need to repeatedly set up monitoring metrics for individual devices.
The most important Zabbix functionalities:
- Develop custom API scripts to automate monitoring processes or connect Zabbix to external solutions via the official Zabbix library for Python.
- Zabbix provides robust security for the monitoring environment, including user authentication, encryption of data transmissions using a certificate or preshared key, and logging of changes and events for auditing purposes.
- Monitoring large environments can become a major challenge without automation. Zabbix therefore offers several options to automate the management of these environments. There are three key features for automation: network discovery, low-level discovery, auto-registration of active agents.
