The Monitor::Simple allows simple monitoring of applications and services
of your IT infrastructure. There are many such tools, some of them very
complex and sophisticated. For example, one widely used is *Nagios*
(). The Monitor::Simple does not aim, as its
name indicates, for all features provided by those tools. It allows,
however, to check whether your applications and services are running
correctly. Its simple command-line interface can be used in cron jobs and
reports can be viewed as a single HTML or text page.
