What are the data points of the / API / webserver monitoring endpoint?
The /api/webserver/monitoring endpoint exposes aggregrated performance data for the web server. These data points include networking, CPU, memory, HTTP requests, and caching.
What can the monitoring API be used for?
The monitoring API provides performance and health data for the web server, web sites, and application pools. This data can be used to measure how effectively resources are being used.
Which is an end point of an API?
When an API interacts with another system, the touchpoints of this communication are considered endpoints. For APIs, an endpoint can include a URL of a server or service. Each endpoint is the location from which APIs can access the resources they need to carry out their function. APIs work using ‘requests’ and ‘responses.’
How is performance data used in webserver monitoring?
This data can be used to measure how effectively resources are being used. The /api/webserver/monitoring endpoint exposes aggregrated performance data for the web server. These data points include networking, CPU, memory, HTTP requests, and caching.
