Linuxfabrik ist Icinga Community Hero 2023

In 2023, Linuxfabrik was elected Contribution Tinkerer by the Icinga Community with the Linuxfabrik Monitoring Plugins. Thank you! 🙂

The award was given during the Icinga Feedback Week in April 2023, a community initiative in which the Icinga community recognised its most valuable contributors across several categories. In the sub-category Contribution Tinkerer, the recognition went to Linuxfabrik for maintaining and continuously evolving the Linuxfabrik Monitoring Plugins.

What sets the Linuxfabrik Monitoring Plugins apart

• Sensible defaults: thresholds and behaviour are pre-configured so the plugins return useful results without lengthy tuning.
• Auto-discovery: the plugins recognise typical setups on their own instead of pushing every edge case into parameters.
• Consistent cross-platform metrics: comparable values on Linux, Windows, macOS and FreeBSD, so dashboards work across platforms.
• Minimal dependencies: few external packages, runs well on standard distributions.
• Public Domain: free to use and modify, no license friction.
