Active vs. Passive Web Performance Monitoring |
This paper examines the website monitoring options available with passive and active monitoring solutions. Passive monitoring is better suited as a technology to determine what went wrong with a website or Web application after problems have occurred. Active monitoring solutions allow the webmaster to identify problems, such as application issues and network or server connectivity problems, and to determine if a website or application is experiencing downtime or performance degradation before these problems impact a large number of site visitors.

While IPv6 websites can be accessed using dual stacks, tunneling and protocol translation, native IPv6 performance monitoring is essential to determine whether performance issues are originating in the end-to-end IPv6 environment. Companies that have deployed IPv6 websites must utilize native IPv6 performance monitoring to isolate service-level agreement (SLA) issues for these sites as IPv4 monitoring alone will not help isolate IPv6 QoS issues.

Performance and availability suffers when an e-business site is not prepared to receive the workload generated by its customers.
