Editor: Server Scout is an application, which monitors networked communication systems [Apache, MySQL, etc.] by means of the predefined sensors or user-defined scripts
Monitors virtually any system
Due to Server Scout's versatile sensor architecture, the application manages a broad range of systems:
Routers or managed switches
Intra- or internet-based web- or application server
OS X, Windows, UNIX or Linux based file servers
To make the system manager's life as easy as possible, we ship the application with several predefined sensors:
Network Latency - Supervises the time, a data package needs to reach a system
Simple HTTP Ping - Retrieves a web-page based on a give URL, monitors the page's size and speed of a server
Apache Server Status - Retrieves Apache's integrated Sever-Status feature and monitors Apache's performance
Generic Sensor - Queries an arbitrary script [sample PHP script included]. This versatile mechanism allows to supervise MySQL, Oracle, or virtually any other server application.
