Icinga Valuable Features

First of all, what I like about Icinga is the capacity and the extent to which we can use it. Although we have a library built-in where we can find hundreds and thousands of plugins for our use case, there are times when we are stuck on a block where we don't find any plugin that matches our taste or our requirements. In that case, it is really easy in Icinga to create your own plugin and integrate it without any fuss. And it works just perfectly fine.

There's a module called Icinga Director, which helps us configure the product using an intuitive interface through clicks instead of creating a text configuration. It's very helpful for us.

Regarding the experience, we are pretty excited about Icinga.

The best thing about the solution is how it highlights errors, the issues, and what needs my attention. The solution directs me to areas that I should look for first.

I like the ability to amend and adjust things really easily, which is useful in a case where you could make it auto-discover and then set a template to say all of these applications or servers under this template have an automatic threshold set that you’d set up manually.

Icinga has multiple automation and integration features. There is an API for everything and a web UI for configurations. The APIs enable you to automate tasks in Icinga. There are Ansible Collections available to manage services and hosts. Therefore, we were able to automate the installation of a new Icinga satellite for new customers.

To manage Hosts, Icinga provides the Icinga Director. This software talks to a CMDB in the background and imports new hosts or edit hosts that already exist.

The monitoring has been good. 

It's a very interesting tool in general. 

We have found the solution to be stable. 

The solution can scale if necessary.

The apply rules feature saves a lot of time. For example, if you have 15 web servers, you can create one service and apply it to all 15 machines.
