Advanced Zabbix Database Monitoring
The goal of this course is to fully explain DBMS monitoring concepts, approaches, and to provide practical knowledge of configuring DBMS monitoring with Zabbix. The course covers various Zabbix native approaches to collect DBMS performance metrics and collect DBMS-related data using Zabbix Agent 2, ODBC and API requests. The course also covers optimizing DBMS data collection by introducing dependent Low-level discovery (LLD) for minimal DBMS performance impact.
During the course, students will practice configuring DBMS monitoring for such DBMS as MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, InfluxDB and Elasticsearch
