Paessler announced its latest PRTG extension: Paessler PRTG Data Hub enables IT professionals and their organizations to reduce costs, optimize network traffic, and streamline compliance management.

By enabling IT professionals to filter and forward log data intelligently, it ensures seamless collaboration across ITOps, DevOps, SRE, and SecOps teams while addressing evolving regulatory demands.

PRTG Data Hub processes log data efficiently, allowing it to be filtered by protocol, severity, and relevance before being distributed to multiple endpoints, such as SIEM platforms, PRTG, or other analytics tools. This enables long-term storage and advanced analysis while reducing redundancies, lowering network traffic, and cutting overall logging costs. By simplifying audits and supporting regulations like NIS2, NIST, and TISAX, PRTG Data Hub bridges the gap between IT and security teams, fostering collaboration and ensuring compliance with industry standards.

As IT environments grow increasingly complex, the ability to manage syslog data effectively is essential. PRTG Data Hub’s filtering and forwarding capabilities empower organizations to focus on what matters most—storing high-severity logs securely while summarizing or discarding low-priority data. This targeted approach not only reduces storage costs but also minimizes network load, enabling IT departments to work more effectively with their security counterparts to address critical incidents quickly.

PRTG Data Hub ensures the immutability of log data during processing and forwarding, maintaining the integrity of sensitive information. By preserving this immutability, organizations can rely on tamper-proof records for compliance and audit purposes. This makes it easier to meet regulatory requirements and ensures that logs remain a trusted source of information across the enterprise.

“We listened to our customers’ needs and focused on delivering a solution that enhances efficiency, saves costs, and prepares them for the challenges of tomorrow’s IT landscape,” says Helmut Binder, CEO of Paessler GmbH. “PRTG Data Hub reduces logging overhead, enables seamless team collaboration, and helps organizations comply with complex regulations, all while expanding the functionalities of our products to deliver lasting value.”

PRTG Data Hub represents a significant step towards future-ready monitoring. By enhancing data collection, processing, and distribution capabilities, it simplifies log management while reducing infrastructure costs. The extension will officially launch in December 2024 for Linux systems, with Windows support planned for next year. PRTG Data Hub is included with PRTG subscription licenses of 2500 sensors or more.
