Linux Performance Monitoring Tool

Proactively monitor Linux applications and servers and troubleshoot performance issues faster

Monitor Linux application health and availability

SolarWinds® Server & Application Monitor (SAM) offers out-of-the-box templates to monitor the performance of 200+ enterprise applications. Automatically discover Linux servers and applications, apply built-in templates, and typically start monitoring in about an hour.

Server & Application Monitor lets you monitor databases and web servers, email servers, application servers, messaging servers, and more via a host of protocols, including SNMP, JMX, WMI, and CIM. You can extend monitoring to any custom or homegrown application by customizing existing out-of-the-box templates or building new ones.

Help ensure Linux servers run at peak performance

The Linux server monitoring tools in SolarWinds Server & Application Monitor allow you to monitor, alert, and report on performance issues in your Linux servers.

  • Easily detect if the Linux server is experiencing high response time, latency, or packet loss
  • Monitor server processes in real time, identify rogue and runaway processes hogging system resources, and remotely terminate them at the click of a button

Server & Application Monitor supports many Linux distributions, including Red Hat Enterprise Linux monitoring, CentOS, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, Ubuntu Server, Debian, Fedora, and more.

Monitor server resources and hardware health

Linux monitoring tools in SAM allow you to monitor resource utilization on your Linux servers. Receive alerts about CPU overloads, insufficient RAM, and storage issues, such as disks running out of capacity. SAM helps keep you prepared with capacity forecasts and more.

Monitor the health of hardware components in your Linux server, including temperature, CMC, fan speed, power supply, blade chassis, and more. Receive alerts when server hardware components are in warning or critical states and reduce server downtime due to hardware failure.

Isolate issues in the virtualized and cloud environments

No matter where your Linux applications are running, on a physical or virtual server, on-premises, in the cloud, or hybrid environment, Server & Application Monitor’s Linux server monitoring tool helps you isolate the root cause in minutes. Built-in virtualization monitoring helps you identify whether there are resource contention issues at the host or virtual machine. Choose between agent-based and agentless monitoring.

Use the built-in AppStack™ dashboard to visualize contextual relationship mapping between applications and the underlying physical and virtual infrastructure. This accelerates issue diagnosis and troubleshooting.

Note: Server & Application Monitor installs on a Windows server, but it can monitor heterogeneous environments running on Linux and Windows.
