Elastic Agent is a single, unified way to add monitoring for logs, metrics, and other types of data to a host. It can also protect hosts from security threats, query data from operating systems, forward data from remote services or hardware, and more. Refer to the documentation for a detailed comparison of Beats and Elastic Agent.

This module periodically fetches metrics from Apache HTTPD servers. The default metricset is status.

Compatibility

The Apache metricsets were tested with Apache 2.4.12 and 2.4.54 and are expected to work with all versions >= 2.2.31 and >= 2.4.16.
