This article focuses about Web application monitoring technology. The author recognizes that this is a difficult process, because applications are very complex and used on distributed systems. Here is the introduction:
Can Web application monitoring technology keep pace with the evolution of Web applications? At first glance, the answer would seem to be no. The infrastructure behind Web applications keeps getting more complex, distributed, and asynchronous, making it tougher to pinpoint problems. And the proliferation of Web services and remote processes will only accelerate this trend.
This article is just one part of a special report from InfoWorld. I also recommend another article on the monitoring subject: Diagnosis dilemma, by Scott Tyler Shafer.
