      CUSTOM APPLICATION MONITORING  
 
For customers that utilize dynamic web pages or web-accessible applications, NeoSpire offers a level of monitoring that is customized to each specific application. NeoSpire accomplishes this by using a customer-specific, customized test that requests a specific page from each application being monitored. This custom page is written using the same technologies and database queries as the production application and is tested for a specific output. If this output changes in any way, the monitoring system will alert our System Administration team who will take immediate action.  
This method of monitoring provides the customer more control over what is monitored. By using a page within the existing application, the customer is able to add or remove specific tests from the page at anytime they wish. When used in conjunction  NeoSpire Monitoring with our Load Balancing system, this page can be used to test the  Offerings application for availability of new requests. Some managed hosting   providers will limit the number of ports and services they monitor.   .
