Abstract

Various systems, methods, and programs embodied on a computer readable medium that facilitate monitoring of services and servers. In one embodiment, an amount of data is stored in at least one storage device, the data being generated by a plurality of services executed on a plurality of servers, and by the servers upon which the services are executed. A plurality of monitoring applications are executed in a monitoring server, the monitoring applications being configured to perform a plurality of monitoring functions with respect to at least a portion of the data to facilitate an assessment of an operating condition of the services and the servers. An interface layer surrounds the monitoring applications in the monitoring server. The interface layer defines a messaging format that is used by devices external to the interface layer to interact with the monitoring applications.
