APM Monitoring with Scout APM
Why do you need Application Performance Monitoring?
Performance Monitoring is a critical part of meeting application SLAs. Further, ensuring your product databases and API endpoints are fully optimized plays a major role in ensuring customers choose your solution over a competing offer. After all, if a user can't obtain data quickly and efficiently, they may look elsewhere.
What is Scout APM?
Scout APM is a lightweight application performance monitoring tool that analyzes app behavior to help you identify critical performance issues currently supporting PHP, Ruby, Elixir, and Python applications. It offers an intuitive and developer-friendly solution that allows you to quickly identify application performance issues. Combining deep instrumentation with an affordable, mature, and clutter-free UI, Scout APM helps you quickly identify and resolve your performance issues.
Scout can detect and identify:

- Code deployments
Scout’s PHP agent supports many popular libraries to instrument middleware, request times, SQL queries, and more. Source code and issues can be found on our scout-apm-php GitHub repository.
