Happy International Girls in ICT Day 2023! OpenNMS celebrates the importance of girls, women, and non-binary folk in Information and Communications Technology (ICT). Last year, people on our team shared stories about the importance of access and safety in ICT. This year's theme is "Digital Skills for Life." Looking around OpenNMS, this theme is especially meaningful. [...]
We invited OpenNMS employees to share their own experiences in ICT as women, non-binary, those identifying as female, or allies. Read their stories.

Large, distributed networks can be difficult to reach and monitor from a central location, with challenges like firewalls, network address translation (NAT) traversal, overlapping IP address ranges, and locked-down environments. The OpenNMS Minion component extends the reach of Horizon/Meridian, so you can monitor systems and networks that would otherwise be inaccessible, for optimal visibility into every [...]
When you want to store large amounts of non-aggregated data (such as performance metrics), the round robin database (RRDtool) in OpenNMS may not be enough.

It removes aggregation as a bottleneck to storage, [...]
