But it is not so +trivial to store this data in a efficient and systematic manner. This is +where RRDtool kicks in. It lets you log and analyze the data you gather from +all kinds of data-sources (DS). The data analysis part of RRDtool is based +on the ability to quickly generate graphical representations of the data +values collected over a definable time period. |
