Monitoring and Logging Strategy

Back to Home Lab Documentation Hub

Observability Goals

• Detect service degradation before user-impacting failure.
• Correlate infrastructure, security, and application events.
• Retain enough telemetry for incident reconstruction and trend review.

Platform Roles

• Zabbix: system health, uptime, and threshold-based alerts.
• Wazuh: endpoint security events and policy compliance.
• Graylog: centralized logging, dashboarding, and search.

Operational Review Cadence

• Daily: critical alerts and service availability checks.
• Weekly: trend review and recurring event analysis.
• Monthly: tuning of thresholds, false-positive reduction, retention checks.
