Kashef Studio is a powerful application designed to collect information from a variety of sources in real-time and to enable proactive monitoring diagnostics. This increases system availability and reduces downtime on end-users. It is now possible to find out when the system is slow before users complain.
Kashef Studio system leverages a modular design where a large number of basic building blocks ( called Kashef Components or KACs for short ) are available out of the box that can then be used in creating more complex blocks.
Implementing a monitoring solution therefore becomes the process of creating new configurations based on these blocks or using an existing available configuration which comes in the form of a KPack ( Kashef Pack ). This is analogous to creating circuit boards from basic electronic components such as transistors, resisters and capacitors.
Here are some key features of "Kashef Studio":
· Built in collection modules for performance counters, http pings, log files, COM+ sources.
· Advanced Complex Event Processor based analytics engine
· Customizable analysis module creation
· Graphical IDE for defnition of monitoring modules and custom dashboards
· Real time charts, tables and health gauges
· Email notification capablities
· Online forum for exchanging monitoring modules
· Currently available modules allows Windows Server monitoring, IIS monitoring, URL monitoring and synthentic transaction monitoring
