What processes all collected data in the Zabbix architecture?

In the Zabbix architecture, the Zabbix Server is responsible for processing all collected data. It acts as the central component where data from various agents and proxies are received, processed, and stored. The server handles the core functions such as triggering alerts, running items, and generating reports based on the collected information.

In addition to processing data, the Zabbix Server performs critical coordination tasks between the frontend and the database, ensuring that monitoring information is accurately reflected in user interfaces and analysis. Its capability to analyze and aggregate collected data allows for effective performance monitoring and incident response.

The other components play distinct roles but do not handle the primary data processing. The Zabbix Frontend serves as the user interface, enabling users to visualize and interact with the data. The Zabbix Proxy is used to collect data from monitored devices and forward it to the server, acting as a facilitator rather than a processor. The Zabbix Database stores the data long-term, but it is not responsible for the processing or analysis of that data after collection.
