Yep, we did it. We’ve finally tackled it head on and answered that nagging question – What’s the difference between Icinga and Nagios?
Indeed a year on, Icinga has ascended above the status of a mere fork. After implementing 400+ patches, bug fixes and feature requests, as well as a flexible API based system architecture – Icinga is now a piece of monitoring software to reckon with.
See for yourself, the differences in the system architecture, web interface, addon development style and above all the team and community that are behind it – on YouTube!
Every now and then, we hear: “Yeah, Icinga looks good… but really what’s the difference?”
So we decided to show you and the rest of the surfers out there, one big aspect that makes Icinga stand out from the crowd. The web team here has created an interface that is so flexible, customisable and insanely easy to use that can’t possibly be missed. So we’ve youtube-d it!
Check out the webcast to:
- Get familiar with the dashboard set up
- Watch the AJAX search in action
- See how to create your own views with filters
- Send compound commands

… and all the other ins and outs of the interface. Happy viewing!
