The Integrations Tab
Within the Integrations Tab, you can easily set up integrations allowing you to ingest events and add contextual information.
BigPanda integrations allow you to easily ingest events from external monitoring, collaboration, change, and topology tools. Integrations allow you to keep your systems in sync, making it easier to detect issues or outages in your infrastructure.
