Advanced Problem and Anomaly Detection with Zabbix

Advanced Problem and Anomaly Detection with Zabbix

Devoted fully to problem detection, this course demonstrates best practices and covers Zabbix tuning with detection of the most sensitive triggers and definition of custom thresholds using context-based user macros.

The ultimate goal of the course is to show the most appropriate ways of detecting problems under different scenarios.

Acquired skills and knowledge

  • Detect problems by configuring Zabbix triggers to analyze the collected metrics
  • Detect problems in numerical and text data
  • Supplement detected problems with additional information about the affected environment
  • Avoid trigger flapping and alert storms
  • Analyze long-term data and react to unexpected changes
  • Aggregate the collected metrics and find problems in large amounts of data
  • Monitor regular values and react to unexpected deviations
  • Dynamically detect and react to data points with anomalies
  • Use predictive functions and react proactively to predicted problem states
  • Reduce the number of alarms by defining dependencies between components such as routers and switches or other connected elements
  • Receive alerts about found root causes by configuring Zabbix event correlation

Certificates

There is no exam after the course, but every attendee gets an official Zabbix certificate.
