Good morning everyone, Dimitri Bellini here! Welcome back to Quadrata, my channel dedicated to the open-source world and the IT topics I find fascinating – and hopefully, you do too.

This week, I want to dive back into artificial intelligence, specifically focusing on a tool we've touched upon before: N8N. But instead of just playing around, I wanted to tackle a real problem I face every week: automating the content creation that follows my video production.

Good morning everyone! Dimitri Bellini here, back with another episode on Quadrata, my channel dedicated to the world of open source and IT. Today, we're diving back into our favorite monitoring tool, Zabbix, but focusing on an area we haven't explored much recently: **data visualization and dashboarding**, especially with the exciting improvements in Zabbix 7.0.

For a long time, many of us (myself included!) might have leaned towards Grafana for sophisticated dashboards, and rightly so – it set a high standard. However, Zabbix has been working hard, taking inspiration from the best, and Zabbix 7.0 introduces some fantastic new widgets and capabilities that significantly boost its native dashboarding power, pushing towards better observability of our collected metrics.

Good morning everyone, Dimitri Bellini here, and welcome back to Quadrata – your go-to channel for open source and IT solutions! Today, I want to dive into a feature of our good friend Zabbix that we haven't explored much yet: Zabbix Maps.

Honestly, I was recently working on some maps, and while it might not always be the most glamorous part of Zabbix, it sparked an idea: why not share what these maps are truly capable of, and perhaps more importantly, what they aren't?
