At the most fundamental level monitoring is about avoiding company downtime, periods of unproductivity, and reducing costs. If you’re not exploiting your resources fully then you’re losing time and money. With the right tool, you can reduce downtime and costs and save money; an interesting concept in the majority of cases. Even if you’re not motivated by profit, any organization (ONG, healthcare, public transport services…) can equally benefit by reducing lost time and streamlining their infrastructure.

Network monitoring and monitoring allow you to optimize both processes and resources; by giving you a global perspective of your infrastructure you can see which nodes are bearing the strain of traffic, where you might need extra hardware and where your system is not scaled correctly. You can see where data is clogging up your system, and why and also what to do to sort out the situation.

Network monitoring provides a heads up on when a problem is coming down the pipe; how to avoid said problem, or stop it from turning into a headache.

Network monitoring tools are also a supplement for your network security, allowing you to detect malicious traffic, where it’s coming from and how to cancel it.

A good monitoring tool also generates time-stamped data logs, allowing the system administrator to build up a collection of historical data that is invaluable both for analyzing how problems have been solved in the past, how your network responded to previously-logged events and allowing for prediction of how your system will behave in the future.
