Revolutionizing Application Monitoring : A Review of DizBoard's Unified Dashboard Approach

Abstract

In today's software landscape, the continuous and flawless operation of applications stands as a pivotal requirement. The genesis of the "DizBoard: Server and Database Manager" project stemmed from a pressing necessity to guarantee the seamless functionality and resilience of client-server applications. This imperative emerged from firsthand encounters with the escalating intricacies inherent in modern application ecosystems. An exploration of the existing technological milieu unveiled a diverse array of tools and solutions dedicated to application monitoring. However, the discerned need for a unified dashboard catering to databases, web services, and application servers became increasingly apparent. Current fragmented solutions often resulted in monitoring gaps and an absence of holistic insights into overall application health. The implementation of the "DizBoard: Server and Database Manager" project is geared towards bridging these gaps, addressing limitations highlighted in the literature review. Through a fusion of frontend technologies, Python-backed backend logic, and the automation prowess of shell scripting, this endeavor endeavors to craft a unified dashboard offering real-time visibility into critical components' statuses. This review paper embarks on a journey to expound upon the aspirations and methodologies driving the "DizBoard" project. It aims not only to present a comprehensive view of application health but also to delineate the voids that prevailing technologies leave. Envisioned as a user-friendly and automated monitoring dashboard, "DizBoard: Server and Database Manager" aspires to redefine the paradigm of application health management. Its ultimate goal is to elevate reliability, proactively address issues, and ultimately augment user satisfaction in the realm of application management.
