Optimizing Network Tracking Tool for Management of BUT Campus Network

This master's thesis focuses on optimizing the network tracking tool Zabbix. In the first part this thesis provides an overview of techniques used for monitoring computer networks. The thesis also describes the fundamentals of how Zabbix works, especially in large enviroments. In the second part of the thesis we compare existing optimizations of the database structure which divides large, parent tables into small partitions. The most suitable solution is chosen which is then modified for the BUT network needs. Using this optimization we achieved a decrease of the processor utilization on the Zabbix server and a significant decrease in the growth of data on its hard drive
