    ZABBIX 1.3.7 (beta) released

    ZABBIX SIA is proud to announce the availability of ZABBIX 1.3.7.

    ZABBIX is an enterprise-class open source distributed monitoring solution.

    ZABBIX is released under the GPL, thus it is free of charge for both commercial and non-commercial use. The full license is available at http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.txt.

    This document contains the release notes for ZABBIX 1.3.7. The release supports MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite only. Support of Oracle will be restored in the next release.

    ZABBIX 1.3.x is currently in a feature freeze. We take the feature freeze seriously and mainly work on fixing actual bugs. ZABBIX 1.4 is just around the corner!
