Server Overload

How do you high volume affiliates know when your current server needs to be upgraded? Is there a tool out there?

You ask your provider to checkout your box and see what your running short on.

I run the free plan of newrelic on some of my servers

https://newrelic.com/

It will give you stats on memory, discspace, cpu load, etc.

You can also look at your daily click loss - Clicks in Tracker vs Clicks in Traffic network

I've tinkered with their software, the gui is neat but its a poor approach at server monitoring.

All of the data they collect can be retrieved via snmp and does not add a massive overhead like java.

Good idea, poor implementation, we looked at developing a product like this a few years ago.. I can see the idea has finally caught on.

Internal SNMP monitor we use:

Hey Tyler,

Does 'Internal SMTP Monitor' mean something you guys have coded, or its something off the shelf?
Curious as to what this is, ... as there's about a bajillion smtp options.

We've written a few internal things, the screenshot above is called http://www.observium.org/wiki/Main_Page We've contributed to this project a little bit. It's by far the best *graphing* solution for everything we do.

It does have some software monitoring options in it now, the main focus has been network stats.
