BigPanda offers 50+ standard integrations to streamline receiving ops tools data and sharing information with your collaborators through other systems.

BigPanda 's inbound integrations make it simple to bring together monitoring, change, and topology tools. and normalize events and enrich them with deep contextual information.

BigPanda's outbound collaboration integrations communicate bi-directionally to keep ticketing, notifications, and chat tools in sync across your teams.

Types of Integrations

BigPanda offers several types of integrations:

• Monitoring: allows BigPanda to receive alerts from your monitoring systems, such as Nagios, SolarWinds, and AppDynamics. Many users start by integrating these systems.

• Collaboration: allows you to share incidents from BigPanda with your co-workers through other systems such as Jira or Slack.

• Changes: allows BigPanda to receive change notifications from your change systems, such as CloudTrail, Jenkins, ServiceNow, and Jira.

• Topology: allows you to enrich alerts coming into BigPanda with topology information from configuration management, cloud and virtualization management, service discovery, APM, and CMDB tools.

Agent vs. Webhook Integrations

BigPanda has the flexibility to support both SaaS and on-premise monitoring tools.

Most SaaS tools (such as CloudWatch or New Relic) are integrated using Webhooks. Whenever the SaaS tool generates an alert, it posts an HTTP message directly to BigPanda. BigPanda listens to incoming messages and processes them.

Many on-premise tools are integrated using the BigPanda agent. The agent is a low-footprint daemon installed on the master host of your monitoring tool. It consumes alerts from the tool in real time, and then transmits them to BigPanda via SSL-encrypted HTTP calls.

The agent can require some additional steps to configure. To learn more about using the agent, see the BigPanda Agent documentation.
