A fast, flexible service for monitoring multiple RDBMS instances (Oracle, PostgreSQL, MySQL, etc.) with Zabbix.
ZabbixDBA is a monitoring service that integrates with Zabbix to track performance and health metrics across multiple relational database systems like Oracle, PostgreSQL, and MySQL. It solves the problem of fragmented database monitoring by providing a unified, automated solution for database administrators.
Database administrators, DevOps engineers, and IT teams managing multiple RDBMS instances who need centralized monitoring and alerting via Zabbix.
Developers choose ZabbixDBA for its threaded connection handling, which allows simultaneous monitoring of many databases, and its flexibility via Perl DBI, supporting a wide range of database systems without vendor lock-in.
Zabbix Database Monitoring Service (Oracle, Pg, MySQL, MS SQL, DB2, etc.)
Open-Awesome is built by the community, for the community. Submit a project, suggest an awesome list, or help improve the catalog on GitHub.
Uses Perl DBI to monitor Oracle, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MS SQL, DB2, and more, as listed in the README, providing flexibility across diverse database environments.
Implements threaded connections to monitor multiple database instances simultaneously, enhancing performance for distributed or high-volume monitoring tasks.
Designed for simplicity and extensibility, allowing easy customization of metrics and queries without heavy overhead, as emphasized in the project philosophy.
Verified with Oracle, PostgreSQL, and MySQL, ensuring reliable performance for these common databases, as stated in the README.
Currently only includes pre-built templates and query sets for Oracle, requiring manual effort to set up other databases, which the README explicitly admits.
Requires installation of Perl and specific DBD modules, which can be complex for teams not versed in Perl or in environments where Perl is not standard.
Specifically designed for Zabbix integration, lacking built-in support for other monitoring systems like Prometheus, creating vendor lock-in for Zabbix users.
