At Zabbix, we’ve championed the open-source movement, with its emphasis on openness, transparency, and cooperation, from day one. Because of this, prospective customers and partners often have questions about the security of our product – the fear being that open-source software is somehow less secure than proprietary software.
The objective of this project was to establish a robust and integrated environment for the continuous monitoring of code quality and performance metrics. To achieve this, SonarQube, an open-source platform for the continuous inspection of code quality, was installed on AlmaLinux. Following its setup, SonarQube was seamlessly integrated with Zabbix, an enterprise-class open-source distributed monitoring solution, to enable the dynamic monitoring of various projects. This integration aimed to provide our team at Zen Networks with real-time visibility into key metrics such as bugs, vulnerabilities, and code smells for ongoing projects.
QU!CK Scan & Go, a startup specializing in self-service markets, required a monitoring system that could allow a comprehensive view of operations. Read on to see how Zabbix provided them with a solution that positively impacted their operations as well as their finances.
A top-level domain (TLD) is the part of a URL that comes after the last dot in a domain name. While most are familiar with the first TLDs of .com, .net, and .org, there are more than 1,400 TLDs. fTLD Registry (fTLD) is a global coalition of banks, insurance companies, and financial services trade associations who ensure the .Bank and .Insurance TLDs are governed in the best interests of the financial sector and their customers.

Keep reading to see how Zabbix premium partner Open-Future rises to the challenge of monitoring this massive IT infrastructure.
As Zabbix got the new fantastic Selenium-based synthetic web tests, you will now have a new component to monitor. How do you monitor Selenium? With Zabbix, of course! If you are impatient, feel free to download my very bare-bones example template.
An audit improves the security of a product, specifically the “non-repudiation” aspect in threat-models (risks are reduced when threat-agents cannot deny they did malicious activity). Zabbix 5.0 already had audit functionality, which received a major rewrite in 6.0 and several updates since then. In this blog post, we will go through them and get an overall picture of what has changed (and why).
As a Zabbix partner, we help customers worldwide with all their Zabbix needs, ranging from building a simple template all the way to (massive) turn-key implementations, trainings, and support contracts. Quite often during projects, we get the question, “How about making configuration backups of our network equipment? We need this, as another tool was also capable of doing this!”
Native integration between two leading open-source tools – Zabbix for network monitoring and rConfig for configuration management, delivers substantial benefits to organizations. On one side, Zabbix offers a platform that maintains a Single Source of Truth for network device inventories. It provides real-time monitoring, problem detection, alerting, and other critical features that are essential for day-to-day operations, ensuring smooth and reliable network connectivity crucial for business continuity.
One of the new features in Zabbix 7.0 LTS is proxy load balancing. As the documentation says:
Proxy load balancing allows monitoring hosts by a proxy group with automated distribution of hosts between proxies and high proxy availability.
If one proxy from the proxy group goes offline, its hosts will be immediately distributed among other proxies having the least assigned hosts in the group.
After plenty of breathless anticipation, we’re proud to announce the release of the latest major Zabbix version – the new and improved Zabbix 7.0 LTS. This release is the direct result of user feedback and delivers a variety of improvements, including cloud-native Zabbix proxy scalability, website transaction monitoring, improved data collection speed and scalability, new dashboard widgets, major network discovery speed improvements, new templates and integrations, and more!
In this blog post, I’ll guide you through building your own template to monitor the latest Zabbix releases directly from the Zabbix UI. Follow the simple walkthrough to know how.
