Can you monitor a Philips OneBlade shaver with Zabbix? Of course you can! But why to do that and how to monitor a dumb device with zero IoT capabilities? Welcome to my weekly blog: I get my bread and butter by being a monitoring tech lead in a global cyber security company, but I monitor my home for fun with Zabbix & Grafana and do some weird experiments.

By day, I am a monitoring technical lead in a global cyber security company. By night, I monitor my home with Zabbix and Grafana in very creative ways. But what has Zabbix to do with Blender 3D software or virtual reality? Read on.

By day, I monitor a global cyber security company for a living. By night, I monitor my home with Zabbix and Grafana. In this weekly blog series I'm sharing my weird experiments and new ideas how to utilise monitoring.

As on Easter we were not at home but doing Easter stuff, this week I have not implemented any major functionality to my home monitoring environment. But while I'm brewing new weird features, here's some bits and pieces of what I have learned about my home, and not shown here earlier.

Welcome to my weekly blog about how I monitor my home with Zabbix. Like Batman, I have a casual day job as a monitoring tech lead, and by night I tinker around with my home Zabbix. (Except that Batman does not do monitoring, or who knows)

Can you monitor the regular use of facial cream with Zabbix? Of course you can! Here's how. This same method could be very useful for monitoring if the elderly remember to take their meds or so.

(I am posting my weekly Friday blog about how I monitor my home with Zabbix & Grafana a day early, as today I'll be working in the evening and have my morning free, and not so sure about tomorrow. Originally my plan was to write about something completely else, but this was too good to skip.)

In this weekly Friday blog series I am showing you how I am monitoring my home with Zabbix and Grafana. The whole project is my fun recently started hobby and is already beyond what I originally was aiming for.

New to series? Then please first read part 1 and part 2.
