Advanced Host Monitoring
Optimize monitoring with an enterprise-grade host monitor
Use a host monitor to run host performance monitoring on hybrid systems
Host performance monitoring best practices are especially important in virtual environments because virtual machines (VMs) are agile and diverse. Users need a host monitor capable of handling hybrid systems. SolarWinds® Server & Application Monitor (SAM) is built to provide in-depth details about application health no matter where they’re deployed, so you can achieve critical visibility into key performance metrics. With the PerfStack™ dashboard, you can compare different types of data side-by-side, which helps generate insights.
View, track, and optimize your host’s resource usage with an advanced host monitor
When there are multiple VMs running on the same host, it’s critical to make sure resources are allocated properly. SAM features built-in capacity planning software designed to help you evenly distribute disk, memory, CPU, and host usage now and in the future. Forecasts show which servers are nearing critical thresholds. With this host monitor, you can pinpoint what’s straining your host and troubleshoot issues before they affect end-user experience.
Dig into application performance right away with a comprehensive host monitor leveraging templates
If you’re experiencing slow host performance, manually monitoring every application isn’t time-effective. To solve this problem, SAM is designed with over 1,200 application monitor templates to help speed up the troubleshooting process. You can use these templates to better understand the availability and current performance of applications at a glance, so you can focus on what needs fixing.
Optimize monitoring with an advanced host monitor for enterprises with specialized features
SAM comes equipped with specialized features to make hosted server monitoring easier and more intuitive:
- The AppStack™ dashboard highlights performance issues by showing relationships between apps on the host, making troubleshooting more insightful.
- AppInsight™ features even more templates to help you monitor servers like Microsoft Exchange, IIS, and SQL Server.
You can even combine these features with PerfStack for an advanced host monitor enterprise solution.

Do you find yourself asking…
A host monitor is a tool built to perform monitoring tasks, such as tracking metrics, to help ensure host systems are functioning as optimally as possible.
A host is a device that supports networked services, like applications or websites. A host can be a web server, virtual machine, desktop computer, or similar device that can be assigned an IP address. A host can include clients and servers, but not switches or router.
The term “host” is most commonly used in virtual environments in which multiple virtual machines share resources from a shared “host,” but there are many different types. Some examples include:
- Web hosts
- Virtual hosts
- Cloud hosts
- Remote hosts
These different types of hosts vary in scope, but they all reference a sort of foundational computer system on which other servers, applications, sites, and operations depend. A host monitor is a tool that monitors host performance to help ensure critical network operations aren’t compromised.
