Zabbix Event Streamer

Big data integration for Zabbix events

IntelliTrend Event Streamer

The IntelliTrend Event Streamer streams events (problems) from Zabbix to a Kafka message queue.

The Zabbix events are sent to the Event Streamer via a Zabbix media type. The received events are then written to a Kafka bus by the Event Streamer in a customizable message format.

By configuring a JavaScript transformer, the data format can be completely customized to your needs, thereby covering various different use cases.
