Conference Benelux 2024 Agenda

A Zabbix proxy is an optional Zabbix component enabling the horizontal scaling of your Zabbix infrastructure and distributed monitoring across multiple geographical locations. In this presentation, we will take a look at the internal mechanisms of a Zabbix proxy. Learn how Zabbix proxies collect, process, and store data, the proper way of monitoring, maintaining, and tuning your proxies, use cases for deploying Zabbix proxies, and more.

Zabbix proxy high-availability and load balancing features are coming in Zabbix 7.0. The presentation will cover the implementation details, common use cases, and other aspects of these upcoming features.

Zabbix agent 2 is an ever-evolving Zabbix component that enables out-of-the-box monitoring of a variety of endpoints. In this presentation, we will take a look at the latest updates to Zabbix agent 2, the underlying data collection logic, and key benefits of deploying the agent.

Zabbix 7.0 will introduce new synthetic web page monitoring features. In this presentation, we will give a preview of the new features and discuss the use cases for browser monitoring.

I have created a mediatype to export problems to Elasticsearch, which gives you the possibility to search, analyze, and visualize problems. It will also give you insights into recurring problems or problematic hosts, particularly in large environments.

Zabbix can be deployed to monitor infrastructures of various scales and scopes. Enterprise environments can be especially complex to design a monitoring solution for, due to multiple enterprise policies, different IT teams working on and monitoring various projects and solutions, additional security requirements, and more. With this in mind, the presentation will cover the best practices for designing Zabbix to monitor enterprise environments and infrastructures.

Learn how to scale your Zabbix configuration workflows with the official Zabbix Ansible collection. The presentation will cover an overview of the Ansible collection and a variety of example use cases.

Zabbix Audit log received a redesign in Zabbix 6.0. Over time it has and will continue to receive a variety of improvements and changes. In this presentation, we will take a look at how Audit log entries are stored, filtered, and sorted, as well as the underlying logic and performance impact of audit logging in Zabbix.

This workshop will consist of a live demonstration of the upcoming Zabbix proxy high-availability and load-balancing features. During the workshop, you will be able to see the features in action, play out a variety of scenarios, and ask questions in an open-ended demo/workshop class.

This workshop will demonstrate a variety of use cases for zabbix_utils - the official python library for Zabbix API. During the workshop, attendees will learn how to use zabbix_utils and a variety of possible scenarios for automating Zabbix workflows with Zabbix API and zabbix_utils.

This presentation will cover a variety of Zabbix features for enterprise user management and provisioning, such as LDAP and Just-in-time (JIT) user provisioning, managing user permissions and roles, multi-factor authentication, and more.

In 7.0 the detection of cURL library features was moved from compilation time to runtime. This should greatly improve user experience for the cases when Zabbix is built with one version of cURL library and then used with another.

Enterprise environments store a lot of important monitoring data in addition to complex Zabbix configuration. It's important to have a proper backup logic for a variety of Zabbix components in order to prevent potential data loss in case of a disaster. In this presentation, we will look at best practices for backing up Zabbix configuration and the collected data.
