Alexei Vladishev created Zabbix in 2001 and released the first stable version (1.0) in 2004. The project is developed by Zabbix LLC (SIA Zabbix), based in Riga, Latvia. The server and agent are written in C, a newer agent (agent2) in Go, the web frontend in PHP, and a Java gateway handles JMX monitoring. Beginning with version 7.0 (June 2024), Zabbix is licensed under the AGPLv3; earlier versions used the GPLv2.
