New Monitoring Connectors – October 2023

Blog New Monitoring Connectors – October 2023

Every month, Centreon extends its monitoring connector catalog and implements new ones, allowing you to connect your IT monitoring with more ITOps tools. The result: increased visibility and business observability capabilities. We also offer enhancements and fixes on existing connectors.

This October, we’re pleased to introduce two new monitoring connectors, as well as announce a few enhancements and fixes on existing connectors.

To learn more, you can also read the related documentation, contact our sales team or post a message on The Watch.

Reminder: since the 23.04 new release, there is a new name for our Plugin Packs. We will now refer to them as Monitoring Connectors.
