Monitoring Apache processes and threads
Latest Apache versions implement hybrid multi-threaded and multi-process models to serve requests.
It means that you will see multiple Apache processes running.
Each process may contain multiple threads.
Each request processing thread is called aworker.
Anturis Apache Monitor allows you to keep an eye on the number of busy and idle workers.
Watching the number of busy and idle workers is a proactive way to catch Apache configuration problems early enough.
A web server should never swap because swapping out a process will make request processing latency unacceptable.
The same procedure should be applied to the CPU, as your web software may be CPU-intensive.
you could use this information to anticipate future upgrades of your infrastructure.
Anturis Apache Monitor collects data about Apache processes aggregate CPU and memory consumption.
It will also alert you if the values exceed the desired limits.
