Autotracing - A New Feature Added to the CloudLinux OS - LicenseMan | Cpanel,Cloudlinux,Litespeed,Plesk,Windows 10 ,Windows server

Ultimate automation is our goal

The new Autotracing tool is one more benefit that unloads overhead from server administrators to help manage issues related to end-user CMS and prevent critical errors by providing advanced analytics about possible bottlenecks.

Autotracing is effective right out of the box, as well as trouble-free, and easy to use with a detailed per-user view. It aims to let the hoster focus on business and together with PHP X-Ray and WP Optimization Suite automatically detects most clients’ website issues such as:

Slow URLs
Slow plugins
Slow database queries
Slow functions
Slow external calls

These performance issues are difficult to diagnose and often drive website owners to switch their hosting provider. Autotracing helps hosting providers to identify performance issues without requiring additional manpower and overhead from administrators.

With the newly released CloudLinux OS modules, hosters are no longer forced to manually diagnose problems. To free administrators from using an ad-hoc mix of command-line utilities, we developed the Autotracing tool to meet their needs.
