Monitoring Monitoring IT components, servers and applications using Zabbix


Monitoring

Note:

I'm using Zabbix v2.2. All the following information are just a practical summary of the Zabbix official documentation applied to my use-case.


Log aggregation

Log aggregation Monitor applications behavior using ELK.


Unlike Zabbix, this part is not about monitoring the environment but the actual applications behavior. To monitor applications results you can rely on logs files. ELK (Elastic search, Logstash, Kibana) is a wonderful stack to monitor that. See: http://www.elasticsearch.org/
