Using Zabbix
Today I set up a server monitoring service called Zabbix. Zabbix is a free, open-source service for monitoring and creating reports of your site data and statistics. This blog runs on a raspberry pi 4 that I set up back in august of 2021, I have been learning what services are best for running and maintaining a Wordpress website, and I found out about Zabbix through a recommendation online.
Zabbix shows a lot of data information, like CPU intensity, temperatures of the CPU, network usage for incoming and outgoing traffic, etc. The setup was pretty straightforward when following a tutorial, and I got it set up within 20 minutes, including starting the front-end website. I still need to troubleshoot some issues I had with scheduling reports to my email and accessing the server with localhost.
Overall, Zabbix is looking promising for the future if I need to log an issue I had with my raspberry pi or if I have to troubleshoot the problems with the site.
