Monitoring at Scale with Icinga
summary
Demonstrates using Netbox + Icinga Director as an external source of truth to generate monitored hosts, templates and apply rules so monitoring updates when inventory changes; shows importing strategies, prefixing imported object types to avoid name collisions, validators to catch bad entries, and sync rules that create sites, clusters, hostgroups and endpoints. Examples include customers with 150,000 devices and 750 satellites, using config context JSON, IP-range inference, Ansible/baskets for bulk edits, and notifications that include rack/site metadata.
