What's Nagios?
Nagios monitors networks for problems caused by overloaded data links or network connections, as well as monitoring routers, switches and more. Nagios monitors availability, uptime and response time of every node on the network. The system delivers the results in a variety of visual representations and reports.
Nagios Alerts Require Critical, Priority Alerting
Nagios sends emails through standard protocols when critical events occur in an infrastructure. However, if you receive alerts to a critical event via email, you can easily misjudge the email’s importance.
Nagios alerts must be more prominent and ensure that high-priority events are never missed by incident response teams. It’s time to complement your Nagios deployment with proper alerting tools to enable proactive engineering.
