  webserver performance monitoring that allows
  administrator to track the overall functioning/performance of
  their server. The server monitoring software monitors the
  performance, health of the servers and the information can
  be obtained about its health from present and historic
  performance. It also simulates information about the visitors
  across multiple geographies, user agents used, top referrals
  to their websites/servers over Internet connections. It
  provides information about the number of visitors to a
  website and the number of page views. The uptime,
  Downtime, number of active processes, CPU utilization etc.
  are critical things in deciding the health of the server. The
  Error Log Information analysis and response time calculation
  help in predicting the probable cause of downtimes and
  debugging and tracking the cause of errors.
