Course overview

Zabbix delivers enterprise monitoring with no licence fee — but only if it is built well. This fundamentals course gives operations teams a solid, hands-on grounding: how Zabbix collects data, how templates and triggers keep it maintainable, and how proxies let it scale across sites. You will leave able to monitor a real estate end-to-end.

What you’ll learn

Zabbix architecture & installation

Server, database, frontend and proxies — how the pieces fit and how to size them.

Agents & data collection

Active vs passive agents, agentless checks (SNMP, IPMI, HTTP) and what to monitor.

Items, triggers & templates

Build reusable templates and triggers so 1,000 hosts are as easy as one.

Visualisation — graphs, dashboards & maps

Turn metrics into dashboards and topology maps your team will use.

Alerting, actions & escalation

Media types, actions and escalation chains that reach the right person.

Distributed monitoring with proxies

Monitor remote sites and DMZs reliably with Zabbix proxies.

Maintenance, housekeeping & scaling

Keep Zabbix fast and tidy as the estate grows.

Who should attend

  • IT operations & sysadmins adopting open-source monitoring
  • DevOps & SRE teams instrumenting infrastructure
  • Teams replacing costly commercial monitoring
  • MSPs monitoring multiple customer sites

Before you start

A little preparation makes the labs flow:

  • Comfortable on the Linux command line
  • Networking basics — ports, SNMP, ICMP
  • A laptop with a modern browser
  • A lab VM is provided — nothing to install beforehand
