How to automate adding nodes to rooms in Netdata?

How we organize nodes (and the Netdata agents that are running on those nodes) across different rooms should reflect our architectural decision because the room is a logical container with its own user members and notification rules. So if we are monitoring large infrastructure we should be consistent with these rules and one way to achieve this is to choose automation.

Decentralized Monitoring Explained

Users often find themselves puzzled by the concepts of decentralized or distributed monitoring. This confusion is likely due to many monitoring systems claiming distributed capabilities, making it challenging to discern how Netdata stands out. To grasp the distinction, we must delve into the evolution of monitoring systems. When the first monitoring systems were created, about 20-25 years ago, they were built as SNMP collectors.

Netdata is the only real-time monitoring solution: Justified

In the digital era, where data flows like a ceaseless river, real-time monitoring stands as a pivotal technology, allowing organizations to not only keep pace but also to deeply understand the intricate dance of their operational ecosystems. This technology is not just about keeping tabs; it’s about gaining a profound, almost intuitive sense of the micro-worlds within which systems, containers, services, and applications pulse and thrive.

Understanding Monitoring Tools

If you care about operational excellence when it comes to your IT infrastructure, the role of monitoring systems is pivotal. As we navigate through the myriad of available monitoring tools, it becomes essential to understand the distinct architectures, styles, and focal points of various monitoring solutions, as well as the time-to-value they offer.
