When administering Web applications, you will have problems to solve — whether fixing a service interruption, analyzing a configuration problem, or working around system resource contention problems. Whether the application is an internal corporate Web-presence or a widely available, scaled-out, data-intensive Web application, any problems that you encounter can seem nearly impossible to resolve, and attempting to do so consumes valuable time and resources.
