## About
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Icinga 2 is an open source monitoring system which checks the availability of your
|
|
|
|
|
network resources, notifies users of outages, and generates performance data for reporting.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Scalable and extensible, Icinga 2 can monitor large, complex environments across
|
|
|
|
|
multiple locations.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
Icinga 2 as monitoring core works best with [Icinga Web 2](https://www.icinga.com/products/icinga-web-2/)
|
|
|
|
|
as web interface.
