Good morning everyone, I'm Dimitri Bellini, and welcome back to Quadrata, my channel dedicated to the fantastic world of open source and IT. If you're managing multiple systems, you know the challenge: finding a reliable, centralized way to monitor and control everything without breaking the bank. Proprietary solutions can be costly, and the open-source landscape for this has been somewhat limited.

That's why this week, I'm excited to show you a new product that tackles this problem head-on. It’s an open-source tool called NetLockRMM, and it’s designed to solve the exact problem of remote device management.

Hello everyone, Dimitri Bellini here, and welcome back to Quadrata, my corner of the internet dedicated to the world of open-source and IT. If you're like me, you love the power and flexibility of containers. But let's be honest, managing numerous containers and multiple hosts purely through the command line can quickly become overwhelming. It's easy to lose track of what's running, which services need attention, and how your host resources are holding up.

This week, I stumbled upon a solution that genuinely changed my mood and simplified my workflow: Komodo. It’s an open-source container management platform that is so well-made, I just had to share it with you.

Good morning everyone, Dimitri Bellini here! Welcome back to Quadrata, my channel dedicated to the open-source world and the IT that I love—and that you, my viewers, clearly enjoy too.

In this post, we're diving into a tool that's a bit esoteric but incredibly powerful, something I first used years ago and have recently had the chance to rediscover: Apache Guacamole. No, it's not a recipe for your next party; it's a fantastic open-source tool that allows you to connect to your applications, shells, and servers using nothing more than a web browser.

Good morning, everyone! It’s Dimitri Bellini, and welcome back to Quadrata, my channel dedicated to the world of open-source IT. It’s an exciting week because our good friend, Zabbix, has just rolled out a major new version: Zabbix 7.4! After months of hard work from the Zabbix team, this release is packed with features that will change the way we monitor our infrastructure. So, let's dive in together and explore what’s new.

Let's start with what I consider the most mind-bending, "centrifugal" new feature: nested low-level discovery (LLD). Until now, LLD was fantastic for discovering objects like file systems or network interfaces on a host. But we couldn't go deeper. If you discovered a database, you couldn’t then run another discovery *within* that database to find all its tablespaces dynamically.

Good morning everyone, Dimitri Bellini here, back on my channel Quadrata! Today, we're diving into something truly interesting, a bit experimental, and as always, involving our good friend Zabbix. This exploration comes thanks to a member of the Italian Zabbix community, Matteo Peirone, who reached out on LinkedIn to share a fascinating project he developed. I was immediately intrigued and knew I had to show it to you.

So, what are we talking about? It's called the Zabbix AI MCP Server, and it allows us to instrument operations within Zabbix using artificial intelligence. Let's break down what this means and how it works.
