Deploy Zabbix 6.4 with Docker‑Compose

Zabbix is an enterprise‑grade, distributed, open‑source monitoring solution that can monitor applications, databases, networks, and operating systems, and since version 6.x also supports Kubernetes monitoring. The following docker‑compose.yml file defines the complete setup for Zabbix 6.4.

version: '3.9'
services:
  zabbix-mysql8:
    image: mysql:8.0
    container_name: zabbix-mysql8
    security_opt:
      - seccomp:unconfined
    command: [mysqld, --character-set-server=utf8mb4, --collation-server=utf8mb4_bin, --default-authentication-plugin=mysql_native_password]
    restart: always
    networks:
      - zabbix_net
    ports:

    volumes:
      - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
      - ./mysql8/data:/var/lib/mysql
  zabbix-server:
    image: zabbix/zabbix-server-mysql
    container_name: zabbix-server
    restart: always
    networks:
      - zabbix_net
    depends_on:
      - zabbix-mysql8
    ports:

    environment:

      - MYSQL_DATABASE=zabbix
      - MYSQL_USER=zabbix
      - MYSQL_PASSWORD=password
      - MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=123456
    volumes:
      - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
      - ./zabbix-server/alertscripts:/usr/lib/zabbix/alertscripts
  zabbix-web:
    image: zabbix/zabbix-web-nginx-mysql
    container_name: zabbix-web
    restart: always
    networks:
      - zabbix_net
    depends_on:
      - zabbix-mysql8
    ports:
      - 80:8080
    environment:
      - DB_SERVER_HOST=zabbix-mysql8
      - MYSQL_USER=zabbix
      - MYSQL_PASSWORD=password
      - ZBX_SERVER_HOST=zabbix-server
      - PHP_TZ=Asia/Shanghai
    volumes:
      - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
  zabbix-agent2:
    image: zabbix/zabbix-agent2
    container_name: zabbix-agent2
    restart: always
    networks:
      - zabbix_net
    environment:
      - ZBX_SERVER_HOST=zabbix-server
      - ZBX_SERVER_PORT=10051
    volumes:
      - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
networks:
  zabbix_net:
    driver: bridge

After saving the file, start the containers with docker compose up -d (or start the MySQL service first with docker compose up zabbix-mysql -d && sleep 5 ) and wait for initialization.

When the services are up, the Zabbix web interface becomes accessible at http:// :8080 , where you can log in using the default credentials and begin monitoring your infrastructure.
