The fundamentals of Icinga 2 are check plugins. They are being executed and their return value is mapped to either Host or Service objects. Everything else follows on top. These check plugins can be either from the Monitoring Plugins or custom. While their origin does not matter, they are the building blocks of an Icinga monitoring stack. If a plugin goes CRITICAL, Icinga 2 alerts the sysadmin.

Today we are happy to announce that we released Icinga for Windows v1.13.0 a couple of days ago. We have already talked about the changes coming to v1.13.0 with the beta blog-post last year in more depth, and will focus only on some core changes here.

Icinga is an open-source project, but it’s only become the product we like to use thanks to co-development, brainstorming and suggestions from the community. That’s why we created a platform in the past to facilitate the exchange of custom implementations like check plug-ins, styles, extensions and bridges to third-party systems. We’re talking about our Exchange Portal, of course.

In the area of IT infrastructure management, three terms often surface: observability, monitoring, and telemetry. These concepts, while interconnected, each play a unique role in maintaining system health and performance. Observability, monitoring, and telemetry form the backbone of any robust IT environment. Yet, their differences and interrelations can sometimes blur, leading to confusion. This article aims to demystify these terms, providing clarity on their distinct roles and how they work together.

We recently released the beta version of our Notification Web Module, which includes a cool feature that is not yet known to everyone. We named it Desktop Notifications (Browser Push Notifications). With this feature enabled, your browser can send you instant notifications based on your configured event rules—provided you’re logged into Icinga Web.

One of the advantages of the new Icinga Notifications is that it is more loosely coupled to Icinga 2. This is made possible by the concept of sources, each of which is a possible provider of events for Icinga Notifications to act upon. While the most prominent source would be of the “Icinga” type, there is also the “Other” option, which opens up a huge field of different providers via a simple HTTP-based API.

We tackled the question "Why is montioring important?" before, now it is time to take a look at Icinga.

During the past months we’ve been in direct contact with enterprises to understand their Icinga story. As result we created multiple customer stories which differ in their use case. I want to exemplify how Icinga meets different requirements of organizations and helps them cover their monitoring demands.

In recent years, the number of servers, virtual machines, services, applications, etc. that our customers and users monitor with Icinga has increased significantly. For very large environments, the IDO can be a performance bottleneck. With Icinga DB we’ve rethought everything to allow users to monitor massive amounts of data and bring exclusive features that weren’t possible before.
