RRDtool

RRDtool is a data logging and graphing application. It is based on a Round Robin Database which stores and displays time-series data. It can be used via simple shell scripts or as a perl module and is frequently used as a back-end application for other measurement tools. Like MRTG, it is flexible in what it can measure and can be used by end users to monitor trends on the end systems or by campus administrators for network information.
