opEvents
Cut Alert Noise by Orders of Magnitude, Find Root Cause Before the Outage Escalates
opEvents ingests syslog, SNMP traps, and Windows events from your entire network, applies intelligent correlation and deduplication, and surfaces only the events that matter. Stop drowning in alerts, resolve incidents faster and prove the cause within seconds.
Architecture
opEvents Architecture
Event ingestion through to NMIS fault context, correlation and policy enforcement at every stage of the pipeline.
Capabilities
From Raw Syslog to Actionable Intelligence, Automated Event Processing at Scale
From raw syslog to actionable insights, opEvents transforms your event data.
Syslog Aggregation
Collect and normalise syslog messages from every device on your network. opEvents processes high-volume syslog streams in real time with configurable parsing rules.
SNMP Trap Processing
Receive, decode, and correlate SNMP traps from any device. Map traps to actionable events with customisable severity classification and escalation rules.
Windows Event Support
Collect Windows Event Log entries alongside network events. Unified visibility across Linux, network, and Windows infrastructure in a single event stream.
Intelligent Correlation
Automatically correlate related events across devices and time windows. Reduce hundreds of individual alerts into a single root cause event, dramatically cutting alert noise.
Alert Deduplication
Prevent alert fatigue by automatically deduplicating repeated events. See the first occurrence, the count, and the last occurrence, not hundreds of identical notifications.
Policy-Based Actions
Define automated response policies triggered by specific event patterns. Execute scripts, send notifications, create tickets, or escalate to on-call staff automatically.
NMIS Ecosystem
How opEvents integrates with NMIS
NMIS Fault Context
Every event is enriched with NMIS device context, node health, group membership, and business classification. Know the impact of an event before you even investigate.
opCharts Visualisation
Display event status alongside performance charts in opCharts. Click from an event to the affected device's performance history for faster root cause analysis.
Ticketing & Notification
Integrate with your existing ITSM platform. opEvents can create and update tickets, send emails, trigger webhooks, or execute any command-line action.
Built For Your Team
Who uses opEvents
Cut through the noise
Correlation and deduplication reduce hundreds of raw alerts into actionable events. Your NOC focuses on real problems, not repeated symptoms.
- Correlated root cause events
- Automated deduplication
- Severity-based escalation
Faster root cause analysis
Trace events across devices and time. opEvents shows you the sequence of events that led to an outage, not just the final symptom.
- Cross-device event correlation
- Timeline-based investigation
- SNMP trap decoding
Measurable noise reduction
Demonstrate operational improvement with event metrics. Track mean time to detect, alert volumes, and correlation effectiveness over time.
- Event volume trending
- MTTD improvements
- Policy effectiveness reporting
