Presentation will cover how to containerize Nagios XI as a small footprint System Image that has many advantages to the Nagios XI developer. With some low-cost hardware you can build a fairly robust testing environment for your monitoring environment.
Optum
Today’s digital businesses thrive on seamless and reliable IT infrastructure, be it private clouds, public clouds, or on-prem infrastructure powered by virtualization, containerization, or serverless. Organizations spend a lot of money, resources, and projects to ensure IT infrastructure and related services stay available and are fault-tolerant to minimize business disruptions. Most of the time, what we really need is an open-minded approach to problem-solving by building, creating, or developing adaptable monitoring solutions, powered by engineering, open-source, and subscription-based models. With Nagios, digital and engineering organizations can stay ahead of the curve by embracing a lightweight framework that extends well beyond traditional monitoring and brings in a lot of value, flexibility, open frameworks, and more.
SysAdmin / CloudEngineer, DCMi.co
This presentation aims to explore how Ansible, a powerful automation tool, can simplify and enhance the deployment and management of Nagios monitoring systems. We will delve into the synergies between Nagios and Ansible, demonstrating how automation can lead to faster provisioning, consistent configurations, and reduced operational overhead. In this presentation, best practices for using Ansible to automate Nagios setups will be uncovered, including playbook creation, inventory management, and configuration management. By the end of this session, attendees will have a clear understanding of how to leverage these tools together to create a robust, automated monitoring solution that scales with organizational needs.
COO, Nagios
To Be Announced…
Technical Content Manager, Nagios
Covering each Nagios solution in summary, and the ways they work together to provide comprehensive infrastructure insight.
Technical Sales Engineer, Nagios
People hear “write your own plugins” and it sounds intimidating, as if you need to write a bunch of code, be a developer, and pore over detailed specs, API charts, and other esoterica. This presentation will explain how to make a functional plugin very quickly, with minimal fuss. Also explained is how (and perhaps when) to go up a couple notches of fanciness.
Technical Sales Engineer, Nagios
As a Technical Sales Engineer at Nagios Enterprises, I’ve had the pleasure of talking to many IT professionals about a myriad of different technical hurdles that need to be overcome for monitoring purposes. For example, have you ever heard of a data diode? Until a couple years ago, I hadn’t. But I know how stuff works, so I was successfully able to understand the monitoring challenges faced, and how to overcome them with Nagios XI. Come hear about some strange scenarios I’ve run into over the years, and how we were able to brainstorm around them.
Senior LAMP Stack Developer, Nagios
OpenSearch allows delegating specific roles in a cluster to particular nodes. As your data storage needs increase, it will become useful to have different node types for storing different data in the cluster. We will discuss the various node types, what they are used for, and the hardware requirements and tradeoffs of each.
Software Developer, Nagios
The Nagios Event Broker (NEB) is a fundamentally useful low-level API to Nagios Core. In this talk, we will cover how NEB modules work in general, as well as discuss the specifics of NEB modules such as mod_gearman, NDO, and Livestatus. Attendees will gain new understanding in the possibilities of creating their own NEB modules, as well as modifying existing to better suit their needs.
