Welcome to the Checkmk stand!

Open source monitoring software developed in Python and C++ for IT Infrastructure monitoring. It is used for the monitoring of servers, applications, networks, cloud infrastructures (public, private, hybrid), containers, storage, databases and environment sensors.

Checkmk @ FOSDEM

Our stand will be interesting for hobbyists building their homelab or IT professionals who are managing their organization's infrastructure. At our stand we'll share some insights of what we learned in the field, explain some of our problem-solving approach in the job and show some demos.

We're available the whole day for you, with some demos scheduled at specific times.
