I would like to see a powerful monitoring application, including
database archiving of statistics.
Coincidently, I wrote such software ;-).

Moodss is a modular monitoring application, which supports the Linux
operating system (CPU, memory, disks, sensors, ...), databases (MySQL,
ODBC, ...), networking (SNMP, Apache, ...), and any device or process
for which a module can be developed (in a scripting or compiled
language: Tcl, Python, Perl, C).
A very intuitive GUI with full drag'n'drop support allows the
construction of powerful dashboards with graphs, pie charts, ...
Proactive monitoring is achieved via a thorough thresholds
functionality, including warning by multiple emails, user defined
scripts, and an included daemon for background monitoring.
Finally, on top of real-time monitoring, any part of the visible data
can be stored in a SQL database (MySQL or ODBC) by both the GUI and
daemon applications, so that, for example, complete history over time
can be made available in web pages, common spreadsheet software, or
presentations.

If you manage a dynamic international web site, and you suspect
overloading occurs during the night, you could record statistics on the
system (CPU usage, memory, swapping, disk, ...), network (ethernet
device, router ports via SNMP), database health and I/O, and load on the
Apache web server, then browse the results in the morning using the same
graphical software to determine the origin of the problem.
