Zabbix Summit 2022

The tenth anniversary Zabbix Summit

A few days ago, we returned from the tenth anniversary Zabbix Summit, and although we are still processing all the experiences, it is already clear that this year's event was exceptional. After two years, we were finally able to meet other Zabbix partners and members of the wider community in person again, this time as a gold sponsor.

Our Zabbix stand

At our stand in the lobby, you could learn about our widgets for improving the Zabbix frontend, there was a lot of networking going on and you could also get some great goodies from us. By the way, the Rubik’s Cube was clearly the biggest success :). We were delighted to meet so many participants of our trainings and webinars as well as Czech and Slovak colleagues.

Lecture on widget creation and free downloadable examples

Another important part of our participation at the summit was a talk by Tomáš Heřmánek about plugin modules that extend and improve data visualization in Zabbix. We were very pleased with the positive feedback and with the fact that the talk also helped inspire changes within Zabbix itself. The modules discussed are available in our git repository (git.initmax.cz), which we continue to expand with more templates and widgets from our workshop. You can also watch the talk on the Zabbix YouTube channel.

We are among the most active translators worldwide

A big surprise for us was receiving an award for our contribution to the translation of Zabbix. We are among the most active translators worldwide, so you can enjoy Zabbix translated into Czech and Slovak.

Our impressions

Zabbix Summit 2022 was an amazing experience for all of us, including our colleague from O2 Czech Republic. From meeting many new people and having inspiring conversations, through delivering our first successful talk at such an important event, to the recognition of our translation work, the summit gave us a lot. We learned a great deal during those few days, moved our work forward, and are already looking forward to the next edition.

PS: We are already preparing for Prague PostgreSQL Developer Day 2023 and are also planning an online meetup for the first quarter of next year.
