Nagios XI Scalability

HM
Assistant Director at unpa

I don't have a problem with the scalability of Nagios XI.

We have people from many teams using the solution. Right now, we have ten users on the solution.

Nagios XI is scalable. It covers our data.

We have eight users in our organization who are network administrators, engineers, and senior operations staff.

It is extensively being used. It currently covers two entire data centers.

There are approximately 600 assets in total. We're not sure if we are going to extend its usage. We are implementing our hybrid cloud strategy, and it will most likely not be suitable for monitoring our public cloud assets. 

We will not be using this solution in the future, but I wanted to explain why. If it could, which is sort of can, there are better options for us in AWS and Azure for our use cases. We're unlikely to extend it to the cloud, but as long as our data centers are operational, we'll continue to use it.

The solution is not scalable. Less than twenty people were using the solution in my previous organization.

Not an issue, but more of adding additional nodes to handle a large number of devices.

You should be careful when you monitor many hardwares with many softwares, the performance of one license could be compromised. You need to manage more than one license if you have an infrastructure which is very large.

Scalability is very good, and I have no problem with it. The configuration is such that you can add hosts or monitoring services very easily.

We have four security administrators who use this system.

The scalability of Nagios XI is scalable. However, it is not easy to do.

We have approximately 12 system engineers and system administrators using the solution.

Adding new servers and passive checks (which require setting up agents and NRDS) on servers are a little difficult to do properly when employees don't understand the process. Since documentation is lacking, it's a matter of trial and error before things work properly. So yes, scalability could be improved.

Up to now, the infrastructures I've been a part of were not so large, up to 200 hosts and 1300 services. Even for XI which uses MySQL on the back end, a host with 8GB RAM and four vCPUs is adequate.
