Any IT environment needs a monitoring system, but which one should we use? We can opt for traditional and more limited systems, or for current monitoring systems such as Pandora FMS. In order to facilitate the task to any user that needs it, from the Pandora FMS team we have developed a method to migrate SNMP monitoring data in order to learn how to migrate Cacti to Pandora FMS in a fast and easy way.
Pandora FMS relies on a MySQL database for configuration and data storage. A database failure can temporarily bring your monitoring solution to a halt. The Pandora FMS high availability database cluster allows you to easily deploy a fault-tolerant, robust architecture.
In the 1980s, Open Hardware made our society shake with the irruption of a giant: IBM® It seems that now in 2018 history will repeat itself! Recently, we wrote on the blog a short story about supercomputers, as well as the big threat, without enough media coverage, about Spectre and Meltdown’s vulnerabilities.

Since version 7.0 NG 723, Pandora FMS has a new feature that allows the use of GIS maps with Geoserver for its integration with Pandora FMS GIS maps. Geoserver is a free, open source Java-based server that allows you to view, edit and share geospatial data.GIS maps with Geoserver work with the free OpenLayers library and by using the WMS (Web Map Service) standard, maps with different output formats are easily and quickly available.
Among the new features of the new Pandora FMS 727 update package, you will find: Threshold definition in Visual Console elements, Visual improvements on GIS Maps and Substantial performance improvement in tree views.
How about starting with an introduction? We will attach links to articles already published that expand on each concept or topic in order to keep our journey as compact as possible.
