4. What is event logging? Most common example is Windows Event Viewer Information, Warning & Errors Single log for entire system What options do we have as .Net developers?
5. ASP.Net Health Monitoring Baked into ASP.Net 2.0+ Mimics the output / data in the Windows Event Log Information, Warning & Errors Multiple output options EventLog, SQL, WMI, SMTP, Trace Configurable via web.config Extensible Custom output provider Custom event types
6. Configuring Health Monitoring Providers What types are available to process output EventMappings What type of events are available for monitoring Rules What to do with what events BufferModes Profiles
8. Great… well, maybe. What’s missing? It’s a new day, what about other platforms? Silverlight WPF WP7 etc. Wouldn’t it be great to have a central place to view logs from all of your applications or platforms?
