📄 Description

Thank you for taking the time to work on a PR for Awesome-Sysadmin!

To ensure your PR is dealt with swiftly please check the following:

Your additions are Free software
Software your are submitting is not your own, unless you have a healthy ecosystem with a few contributors (which aren't your sock puppet accounts).
Submit one item per pull request. This eases reviewing and speeds up inclusion.
Format your submission as follows, where Demo and Clients are optional.
Do not add a duplicate Source code link if it is the same as the main link.
Keep the short description under 80 characters and use sentence case
for it, even if the project's webpage or readme uses another capitalisation.
Demo links should only be used for interactive demos, i.e. not video demonstrations.
- [Name](http://homepage/) - Short description, under 250 characters, sentence case. ([Demo](http://url.to/demo), [Source Code](http://url.of/source/code), [Clients](https://url.to/list/of/related/clients-or-apps)) `License` `Language`
Additions are inserted preserving alphabetical order.
Additions are not already listed at awesome-selfhosted
The Language tag is the main server-side requirement for the software. Don't include frameworks or specific dialects.
You have searched the repository for any relevant issues or PRs, including closed ones.
Any category you are creating has the minimum requirement of 3 items.
Any software project you are adding to the list is actively maintained.
The pull request title is informative, unlike "Update README.md".
Suggested titles: "Add aaa to bbb" for adding software aaa to section bbb,
"Remove aaa from bbb" for removing, "Fix license for aaa", etc.

Please take some time to answer the following questions as best you can:

Why is it awesome?

Because it was in this awesome list since Sep 4 2023. But then, in 1a37e188f0, it got removed with a comment continued through CheckMK and OMD Labs-Edition. The faction CheckMK got it's own entry in the list, but OMD Labs was dropped. As OMD Labs and CheckMK focus on different deployment scenarios and both are under active development, i'd like to reintroduce OMD as OMD Labs Edition.

Have you used it? For how long?

More than ten years. I also setup OMD at some large companies.

Is this in a personal or professional setup?

Professional.

How many devices/users/services/... do you manage with it?

There biggest installation has 800000 hosts and 7 million services. (hierarchical setup at a german retailer with monitoring nodes in every european country)

Biggest pros/cons compared to other solutions?

Pro: installation of one package and basic configuration in a few minutes. Cascading setup is easy. Automated config generator (reading from CMDBs) is included. Both classical (nagios-like) and cloud /prometheus-like) monitoring is included with a common metric database (Victoriametrics) and a common dashboard (Grafana)
Cons: you can't just click around to add new devices into the monitoring.

Any other comments about your use case, things you've found excellent, limitations you've encountered... ?
I'm biased, as i'm one of the authors and also a consultant for OMD.
BTW i did not understand the point "The Language tag ....", that's why i didn't check the box.
