What is Monitoring Tool?
These are software programs that continuously monitor whether systems are working properly and provide alerts in case of errors.
Overview
When an application is deployed to production, you need to ensure that everything is going well. These tools track server speed, error rates, and user traffic second by second. When a problem occurs (for example, when the site slows down), they notify you immediately.
How it works
You add a small tracking code to your system, and this tool continuously collects data and provides you with a dashboard.
Where it is used
It is used in servers, web applications, and large-scale infrastructures.
Commonly confused with
It can be confused with debugging tools; debugging finds the error within the code, while a monitoring tool tracks the overall health of the system.

Why do I need this?
