Al’exa and NetEye at the Open Source Monitoring Conference
Georg has presented the potentiality of Al’exa and the benefits of the integration with NetEye at the OSMC (Open Source Monitoring Conference), which was held in Nuremberg, 22 – 24 October.
The end user experience monitoring approach provided by Al’exa allows to monitor the availability and reliability of any applications also published via Citrix and Terminal Server, through the simulation of the user interactions. In fact, the solution identifies the application objects and the UI elements such as labels, buttons , links , combo boxes … and offers the opportunity to interact with them.
Thanks to the Al’exa IDE the test cases can be quickly created and through the integration of Python it is possible to implement complex control logic. Al’exa measures the performance data and checks the availability and reliability of the IT services as they are perceived by the users. Collected data can be additionally integrated with monitoring solutions such as WÜRTHPHOENIX NetEye , Nagios , Icinga and Shinken, allowing a further comparison with traditional metrics and benefiting from the potential of these systems, such as the reporting, the analysis and the notification feature.

Today we continue our journey into monitoring automation in NetEye. In my previous post we discussed the possibility of automating Business Processes. As you may remember, for those of us working on NetEye Cloud monitoring dozens of clients, it's important Read More
When performance degradation occurs within a complex system, understanding the root cause can be extremely challenging. If the issue happens sporadically, this difficulty increases even more. This is because modern systems involve numerous components that interact in complex ways. For Read More
At first glance, rebuilding an RPM may sound like a purely mechanical task: take a patch, rebuild the package, ship it. In reality, that small fix goes through a much longer journey that touches reliability, security, trust, and long-term maintainability. Read More
Introduction to NetApp and S3 NetApp offers a unified data storage system. NetApp's ONTAP operating system supports a combination of file, block, and object protocols. We can use common storage (disk array), such as NetApp AFF or FAS, and operate Read More
A safer way to run privileged Windows checks with SystemRunner If you’ve been monitoring Windows for a while, you’ve probably seen this pattern: some checks must run as LocalSystem (S-1-5-18), and the “quick fix” is to run the Icinga Agent Read More
