Problem and Anomaly Detection with Zabbix
As organizations grow and the underlying infrastructures become more complex, regular problem detection approaches might become not sufficient anymore. The course focuses on advanced problem detection scenarios aimed at use cases, where static thresholds and regular problem detection logic might not suffice. Throughout the course we will look at advanced problem detection approaches such as root cause problem detection, problem correlation, enrichment and deduplication, as well as look at replacing static thresholds with dynamically calculated baseline values.

Certificates and gifts for the course
For all attendees
For passing the exam
Acquired skills and knowledge
Configure dynamic problem detection thresholds
Utilize baseline monitoring and anomaly detection for dynamic problem threshold calculation.
Detect root cause problems
Reduce alert by ranking problems and reacting only to root cause problems.
Predictive problem detection
Learn how to use predictive Zabbix functions and react to problems proactively.
Provide context to problems
Utilize the collected metrics and event processing features to provide additional context to detected problems.
React to aggregated data
Use Zabbix aggregation functions to aggregate metrics and react to problems on a larger scale.
Tune your Zabbix instance
Optimize your Zabbix instance for large scale environments with complex problem detection workflows.
Outcomes
Organizational impact
During the course attendees will learn about the common pitfalls encountered in large environments with complex problem detection workflows. The lessons learned can be implemented in an organizational environment to reduce alert noise, provide additional context to detected problems and improve problem detection logic in a variety of scenarios.
Individual impact
Attendees will gain hands-on experience with scenarios, where regular problem detection logic is not sufficient and gain a better understanding of the benefits of using features such as baseline calculation and anomaly detection, root cause detection, predictive monitoring and various other advanced problem detection approaches.
