Goal: Identify new platform for Host monitoring
Reports
Expose all data and
configuration easily
Automation
Integrate with CMDB /
ITSM platforms for
remote administration
Dashboards
Flexible enough for
users and dynamic for
administrators
Requirements for
Host Monitoring
Platform
OS Monitoring
Basic metrics like
CPU / Memory / Disk
Space / Ping
Agent-based
More stable choice for
large environments
App Monitoring
High level information
from checks like URL
/ Port / Log Files

Present Picture
• Previous installation in Non-Prod environment (~5k hosts)
decommissioned in Dec-2016
• Former standard for Network monitoring at Dell EMC (replaced by Dell
EMC SMARTS)
• Standard for Host monitoring at Dell EMC
Foglight at
Dell
Zabbix at
Dell / EMC
• Product owned by Quest, who separated from Dell in Oct-2016
• De-centralized architecture
• Large HW footprint
• Switched product focus to DB performance (PI) and monitoring

Zabbix Strengths
Ease of use / administer
• Templates and macros make a powerful
combination
• Internal knowledge from previous
experiences
• No licensing cost
Flexible configuration
• Both agent-based and agentless options
supported
• Native support for all types of monitors
necessary
• Possibility to expand to new monitor
types
Automation
• API enables all functions seen in the
Web page
• Easy JSON formatting
• Standard methods for different object
types (get / create / update / delete)
Smart thresholds
• Dependencies for triggers correlation
• Possible to combine multiple items in
same trigger
• Trend prediction

Platform
Out-of-the-box
Dashboards /
Reports
High Availability
Architecture
• Charts are still very simple and do not allow for easy ad-hoc combination of hosts / metrics
• No dynamic dashboard options (adaptable to Host Groups)
• Reports do not explore configuration of monitors
• Need custom development to be expanded

Comparison of Zabbix with market competitors

  • 1. Comparison of Zabbix with market competitors Rodrigo Fraga Mohr, Senior Advisor Monitoring Engineering L3 Data Analytics Engineer
  • 2. 2 Goal: Identify new platform for Host monitoring Reports Expose all data and configuration easily Automation Integrate with CMDB / ITSM platforms for remote administration Dashboards Flexible enough for users and dynamic for administrators Requirements for Host Monitoring Platform OS Monitoring Basic metrics like CPU / Memory / Disk Space / Ping Agent-based More stable choice for large environments App Monitoring High level information from checks like URL / Port / Log Files
  • 3. 3 Present Picture • Previous installation in Non-Prod environment (~5k hosts) decommissioned in Dec-2016 • Former standard for Network monitoring at Dell EMC (replaced by Dell EMC SMARTS) • Standard for Host monitoring at Dell EMC Foglight at Dell Zabbix at Dell / EMC • Product owned by Quest, who separated from Dell in Oct-2016 • De-centralized architecture • Large HW footprint • Switched product focus to DB performance (PI) and monitoring
  • 5. 5 Zabbix Strengths Ease of use / administer • Templates and macros make a powerful combination • Internal knowledge from previous experiences • No licensing cost Flexible configuration • Both agent-based and agentless options supported • Native support for all types of monitors necessary • Possibility to expand to new monitor types Automation • API enables all functions seen in the Web page • Easy JSON formatting • Standard methods for different object types (get / create / update / delete) Smart thresholds • Dependencies for triggers correlation • Possible to combine multiple items in same trigger • Trend prediction
  • 7. 7 Zabbix Weaknesses Database Platform Out-of-the-box Dashboards / Reports High Availability Architecture • Officialy DBA supported databases within Dell: Oracle and MS SQL • Zabbix does not support MS SQL • Previous experience with Oracle was not scalable Database Platform
  • 8. 8 Zabbix Weaknesses Database Platform Out-of-the-box Dashboards / Reports High Availability Architecture • Charts are still very simple and do not allow for easy ad-hoc combination of hosts / metrics • No dynamic dashboard options (adaptable to Host Groups) • Reports do not explore configuration of monitors • Need custom development to be expanded Out-of-the-box Dashboards / Reports
  • 9. 9 Zabbix Weaknesses Database Platform Out-of-the-box Dashboards / Reports High Availability Architecture • Dependant on 3rd part software • No ACTIVE/ACTIVE option for Zabbix Server High Availability Architecture
  • 10. 10 Final solution proposed Zabbix • 2x Zabbix Server • 2x MySQL • 16x Zabbix Proxy • 4x Apache Web • 3x Virtual IPs Wavefront (VMware) • Dashboards • Reporting Microsoft System Center Orchestrator • Automation via API ▪ Remote administration ▪ Self-service configuration Enterprise Host Monitoring • 50k+ Hosts • 16k+ NVPS • 700+ Users
