Part 19: Automatic temperature control

Can you control your air conditioner using Zabbix? Of course you can! By day, I am a monitoring technical lead in a global cyber security company. By night, I monitor my home with Zabbix and Grafana and do some weird experiments with them. Welcome to my weekly blog about this project.

About two months ago I added our recently bought air conditioner to Zabbix monitoring by utilising MQTT. Reading values is nice and mandatory for monitoring, but can we also send commands to air conditioner using Zabbix? Yes.
