Whether the site is up

Without monitoring the customer sees it first, and you see it after.

Let word come when it falls. Even if the word comes at midnight, someone should be there to look.

What it is for If processor, memory and disk fill at once, the page slows. Which one filled is on the panel graph, not in a guess.

How it sits A machine that is not updated leaves a door open. The update hour is set when the customers are not busy.

Where it breaks Whether the site is up. Monitoring says whether the site is up. When it falls, word comes. Before that word, the customer sees a closed page.

What to do A shared account is enough for a small site. A dedicated server is taken so the load and the software stay with you. When it is ready, access shows inside the account.
