What platforms are supported?

LeanSentry is an expert monitoring service made specifically for the Windows server platform.

What operating systems can it monitor?

LeanSentry supports the following operating systems:

1. Windows Vista

2. Windows 7

3. Windows Server 2008, R2

4. Windows Server 2012

LeanSentry does not currently support Windows Server 2003, although we are planning to enable this support in the near future.

Can LeanSentry monitor my ASP Classic, PHP, ColdFusion app? 

LeanSentry monitors web applications at the web server level, so it can monitor any application framework on the IIS 7+ , such as ASP Classic, PHP, and so on.  Not all applications provide as much information as ASP.NET applications, but LeanSentry will still be able to track request performance, capture error responses, and provide detailed request traces.

LeanSentry does provide more in-depth monitoring and diagnostics for ASP.NET, and ASP Classic applications, including error details, CPU profiing for ASP.NET, and more.

Does it work in the cloud?

LeanSentry was made for the cloud!  It is built entirely in the Windows Azure cloud, and provides rapid deployment to the following cloud environments:

1. Amazon EC2.

2. Windows Azure, featuring a single step Nuget package that adds LeanSentry to your Visual Studio project instantly.

When you begin deploying LeanSentry, our deployment wizard will ask you whether you are deploying to the cloud, and walk you through a few simple steps to deploy to either Amazon EC2 or Windows Azure.

Can it monitor SQL Server?

LeanSentry can monitor any Windows server, including a server that runs SQL server.  We do not currently provide SQL server specific monitoring.

LeanSentry does capture SQL queries made by the web application without needing to monitor the SQL server itself.  This insures that we can monitor SQL queries made by applications to SQL servers that you do not control, such as SQL Azure.
