Zabbix
Zabbix is an enterprise-class open source server/client
network management system with many
features that are missing in other monitoring systems. It is designed
to monitor and track the status of various network services, servers,
and other network hardware.
This application is frequently used for:
- Hgh level monitoring of IT services
- Centralized monitoring of your servers and applications
- Monitoring of SNMP-enabled devices
- Performance monitoring (process load, network activity,
disk
activity, memory usage, OS parameters etc)
- Data visualization
Zabbix consists of several separate modules: Server, Proxy,
Agent, and a web frontend interface.
