Overview
 is a distributed client-server monitoring solution that helps IT departments to prevent, detect and solve problems on the managed systems, hosts, applications and services. The powerful filtering and correlation engine allows to increase the efficiency of the IT administrators by reducing the number of incidents and pin pointing of hot spots in the environment.
The Agent based architecture provides local intelligence, reliable operation and minimize the network traffic. Each Agent can take the role of a monitoring station that provides agent-less monitoring for remote applications, services and hosts that don't have an agent installed. Firewalled and DHCP environments are handled by the secure communication layer.
The Role based configuration simplifies the configuration and rollout for complex environments and keeps the Administrators in control.
New! boom community version 1.18 is now generally available.
The Community version is free. It is limited to:
| max active Agents | 2 |
| max connected Users | 2 |
| max monitored Hosts | 20 |
Low cost extension licenses are available to increase the number of Agents, Hosts and concurrent users.
Attention Developers and Administrators: You can get it for free! Did you develop own boom
Probes or Monitors that are of general interest? Just send them to us and receive a free extension license.

Investment protection and easy migration path. If you have already developed your
own monitoring functionality based on Nagios® or HP Operations Manager for Unix,
there is no need to start all over again. You can easily reuse or convert these for
the use with boom.
System requirements
Agent: JRE 1.5 or higher
Server: JRE 1.5 or higher, MySQL Database
Client: JRE 1.5 or higher
The blixx SPI for MySQL Databases (for HP Operations Manager) is 100% compatible with the boom server.
The blixx MySQL DB MPI (Management PlugIn) for boom will be released soon.
The MPI is optimized for the advanced boom interfaces and works even more efficient with less resource consumption than the SPI.
The combination of boom with the MySQL DB MPI(SPI) offers the full capabilities of our well known HP OM based monitoring solution
for the MySQL database servers for a very attractive price.
And of course not only for MySQL database servers...
