Icinga for Windows in the Monitoring of Madness

on YouTube ↗01h 06m

" summary

Icinga for Windows ships a PowerShell framework, a background daemon and a REST API and now writes performance data in check multi-format so plugins can drop prebuilt Grafana dashboards (InfluxDB2 using Flux). Developers test on Windows 2012 R2 as the lowest supported target, work around missing members (System.Text.StringBuilder vs New-Object), provide fallbacks to Get-NetRoute, and add an ignore-service flag for the time sync plugin. Roadmap items: consolidate basic data providers into the framework, reduce background daemon memory, and release 1.10.1 patches and a reworked 1.11.x with improved IMC integration.
