What is Foglight integration in ZigiOps?
Foglight is an enterprise monitoring platform used to collect alarms, metrics, and performance data across applications, databases, and infrastructure.
ZigiOps enables secure, agentless integration between Foglight and ITOM, ITSM, and monitoring platforms. Using ZigiOps, Foglight alarms and monitoring data can be synchronized with downstream systems to support centralized event management and automated incident workflows.
With ZigiOps, Foglight can:
Send alarms to event management systems
Trigger incident creation in ITSM tools
Participate in monitoring-to-resolution workflows
Integrate without custom scripts or agents
