Connecting Servers through Thingworx

[Keerthivarman]

Hi,

Is there any possibility that we can connect all servers to thingworx and get the statistics/alerts when the server is down/issue occurs.

Or let me know if we can get the above with some other way.

thank you

Hi @Keerthivarman ,

You mentioned "connect all servers". What are the "servers" mentioned there, ThingWorx, or some sort of other third party server?

Regardless of that, if you want to, you can use ThingWorx to connect multiple servers to it and gather the relevant monitoring data in it.

You can connect to other ThingWorx servers via Federation (using the AlwaysOn protocol) or via the Content Loader snippets (REST HTTP/S). You will need to build the display and alert logic though.

However, there are monitoring systems out there dedicated entirely to monitoring, that contain pre-built alerts and monitoring dashboards that you can use extremely fast. Such systems are generally called "application performance monitoring" and examples are Dynatrace, Azure Monitor, Zabbix etc.They do vary from price, ease of use and setup, but generally achieve the same target - what you need.
