The Montgomery County, Maryland, Department of Technology Services (DTS) implemented a new Systems Monitoring tool in the Enterprise Data Center. The new tool, called Zabbix, allows for real-time monitoring of all equipment (network equipment, servers, storage, security systems, telephony systems, and environmental controls). This effort is intended to ensure 100% uptime for all systems critical to County operations and provide immediate notification of any system outage.
