Checkmk Architecture and Technical Capabilities

Checkmk is a cutting-edge IT infrastructure monitoring solution that combines open-source flexibility with a core of enterprise-grade performance. Checkmk is designed for both small on-premises infrastructures and large organizations that combine on-premises and cloud infrastructures. Furthermore, Checkmk enables a modular and distributed architecture that can be tailored to each client's needs. As a Platinum Partner, at ToBeIT we deploy this technology to transform raw data into operational intelligence.

TECHNOLOGICAL CORE

High-Performance Engineering: Checkmk Micro Core (CMC)

The heart of our Enterprise solution is the CMC, a core developed in C that redefines efficiency:

Request information
<p>Gestión de Procesos Optimizada</p>

Optimized Process Management

Unlike Nagios-based systems, CMC does not generate heavy processes for each check, allowing monitoring of more than 100,000 services per second with minimal impact on hardware.

<p>Latencia Ultra-Baja</p>

Ultra-Low Latency

Ideal for high transactional environments where every second of delay in the metric counts.

<p>Escalabilidad Distribuida</p>

Distributed Scalability

We configure master and slave architectures that allow centralized global monitoring from a single TobeIT interface.

TECHNOLOGICAL CORE

Asset Management and Granular Telemetry

Checkmk acts as a dynamic CMDB. It doesn't just monitor; it understands your infrastructure:

<p>HW/SW Inventory</p>

HW/SW Inventory

ToBeIT configures the system to extract serial numbers, firmware versions, installed security patches, and physical hardware changes.

<p>Métricas de Resolución de 1s</p>

1s Resolution Metrics

Capture performance peaks that other tools ignore thanks to high-frequency processing capabilities.

<p>Correlación de Logs y Métricas</p>

Correlation of Logs and Metrics

The integrated event console processes Syslog messages and SNMP Traps in real time, linking them directly to the host's state.

AUTOMATION OF OPERATIONS

Agent Lifecycle: Deployment and Security

Manual agent management is a thing of the past. With the Agent Bakery we implemented:

Request information
<p>Bake & Sign</p>

Bake & Sign

We generate custom agents with only the necessary plugins for each server, reducing the attack surface and resource consumption.

<p>Actualizaciones Automáticas</p>

Automatic Updates

Deploy monitoring patches to thousands of hosts with a single click from the TobeIT central console.

<p>Seguridad Cifrada</p>

Encrypted Security

All server-agent communications are conducted via encrypted TLS tunnels, ensuring the integrity of your infrastructure data.

Advanced Visualization and Business Intelligence

From Technical Metrics to Business Indicators (BI)

At ToBeIT we take visualization beyond standard graphs:

<p>Business Intelligence Integrado</p>

Integrated Business Intelligence

We group complex technical metrics into logical business states. If a database cluster fails but the backup node is active, your "Billing Service" will still show as green.

<p>Integración Stack Grafana</p>

Grafana Stack Integration

For Network Operations Centers (NOCs), we designed dashboards in Grafana that consume the Checkmk API for high-level aesthetic and comparative visualization.

<p>Informes de SLA Profesionales</p>

Professional SLA Reports

Generate automatic PDF documents with real availability percentages for external audits or internal reports.

Cloud and Hybrid Monitoring

Cloud-Native and Ephemeral Monitoring

Manual agent management is a thing of the past. With the Agent Bakery we implemented:

Request information
<p>Auto-registro</p>

Self-registration

Automatic instance discovery in AWS/Azure without human intervention.

<p>Kuubernetes Insights</p>

Kuubernetes Insights

Monitoring of clusters, pods and east-west traffic.

<p>Análisis de Costes</p>

Cost Analysis

Cloud spending directly linked to technical performance.

APPLICATION MONITORING

Monitoring of Applications

Checkmk not only allows you to monitor your infrastructure, but also allows you to know the status of your applications with two different strategies.

Synthetic monitoring

Configure virtual users that interact with your applications and report their availability and response time to you in real time.

APM with OpenTelemetry

Know the status of your applications using OpenTelemetry APM agents.
