## Description

Zabbix is an enterprise-grade open-source platform for monitoring IT infrastructure, networks, and applications. It provides real-time metrics, alerts, and dashboards, enabling organizations to track performance and availability across their entire technology stack.

The platform collects metrics from virtually any source, including agents, agentless protocols, APIs, containers, databases, and cloud platforms, without requiring custom scripting. It automatically discovers IT resources by scanning network ranges and cloud environments, then applies pre-built templates for immediate monitoring. Real-time problem detection correlates incoming and existing events to identify root causes and trigger alerts the moment thresholds are breached.

Zabbix supports distributed monitoring across multiple sites and tenants, using proxies to collect data from remote locations and forward it to the main server, enabling scalable monitoring across firewalls and network boundaries. It delivers incident notifications across multiple channels including email, Slack, JIRA, Microsoft Teams, and SMS, supporting both proactive and post-mortem alerts. Monitoring data is visualized through interactive graphs, lists, geomaps, and network topology maps in a browser interface without client-side installation.
