  1. POMonitoring AJAX heavy Web Application using Nagios
    primarykey

    text
    <p>We have a (AJAX heavy) web application hosted in cloud across servers and we need to monitor the availability of this service. Requires logging in to the application with a username-password, perform some searches as that user etc. </p> <p>Since we plan to use Nagios for some other monitoring tasks, we decided to use Nagios for web application monitoring too.</p> <p>I came across three such solutions:</p> <ol> <li><p>Webinject: I don't feel like using this. Project not under active development. It was last released in Jan 2006. I can't see any support/help available. Also I suspect how will it behave with Ajax.</p></li> <li><p>Cucumber-Nagios: I tried using this. It involves many Ruby components and found that you have to have in-depth knowledge of Ruby platform to make all these components work together. I am not a Ruby guy and having tough time making all these components work together. Also even this project is not under active development and I don't see support/help options available. I posted a bug 4 days back and don't see any response yet.</p></li> <li><p>Selenium plugin for Nagios: Haven't tried it yet. Will try now.</p></li> </ol> <p>Any more solutions available?</p> <p>Also, since I don't see any good actively developed solutions for monitoring web applications using Nagios, I suspect if it's really a good approach to use Nagios for this? If not, what alternatives do I have? In short what is the best approach to monitor web applications availability?</p> <p><strong>Edit 1:</strong> We can't afford the Nagios XI paid version and will prefer open source solutions. </p>
