-# Features
+## Features
+
+**netdata** is a highly optimized Linux daemon providing **real-time performance monitoring for Linux systems, Applications, SNMP devices, over the web**!
+
+It tries to visualize the **truth of now**, in its **greatest detail**, so that you can get insights of what is happening now and what just happened, on your systems and applications.
-Check wiki page **[Why netdata?](https://github.com/firehol/netdata/wiki/Why-netdata%3F)**.
+This is what you get:
+
+- **Stunning bootstrap dashboards**, out of the box (themable: dark, light)
+- **Blazingly fast** and **super efficient**, mostly written in C (for default installations, expect just 2% of a single core CPU usage and a few MB of RAM)
+- **Zero configuration** - you just install it and it autodetects everything
+- **Zero dependencies**, it is its own web server for its static web files and its web API
+- **Zero maintenance**, you just run it, it does the rest
+- **Custom dashboards** that can be built using simple HTML (no javascript necessary)
+- **Extensible**, you can monitor anything you can get a metric for, using its Plugin API (anything can be a netdata plugin - from BASH to node.js, so you can easily monitor any application, any API)
+- **Embeddable**, it can run anywhere a Linux kernel runs and its charts can be embedded on your web pages too
---
-# Installation
+## What does it monitor?
+
+This is what it currently monitors (most with zero configuration):
+
+- **CPU usage, interrupts, softirqs and frequency** (total and per core)
+
+- **RAM, swap and kernel memory usage** (including KSM and kernel memory deduper)
+
+- **Disks** (per disk: I/O, operations, backlog, utilization, space, etc)
+
+ 
+
+- **Network interfaces** (per interface: bandwidth, packets, errors, drops, etc)
+
+ 
+
+- **IPv4 networking** (bandwidth, packets, errors, fragments, tcp: connections, packets, errors, handshake, udp: packets, errors, broadcast: bandwidth, packets, multicast: bandwidth, packets)
+
+- **IPv6 networking** (bandwidth, packets, errors, fragments, ECT, udp: packets, errors, udplite: packets, errors, broadcast: bandwidth, multicast: bandwidth, packets, icmp: messages, errors, echos, router, neighbor, MLDv2, group membership, break down by type)
+
+- **netfilter / iptables Linux firewall** (connections, connection tracker events, errors, etc)
+
+- **Linux DDoS protection** (SYNPROXY metrics)
+
+- **Processes** (running, blocked, forks, active, etc)
+
+- **Entropy** (random numbers pool, using in cryptography)
+
+- **NFS file servers**, v2, v3, v4 (I/O, cache, read ahead, RPC calls)
+
+- **Network QoS** (yes, the only tool that visualizes network `tc` classes in realtime)
+
+ 
+
+- **Linux Control Groups** (containers), systemd, lxc, docker, etc
+
+- **Applications**, by grouping the process tree (CPU, memory, disk reads, disk writes, swap, threads, pipes, sockets, etc)
+
+ 
+
+- **Users and User Groups resource usage**, by summarizing the process tree per user and group (CPU, memory, disk reads, disk writes, swap, threads, pipes, sockets, etc)
+
+- **Apache web server** mod-status (v2.2, v2.4)
+
+- **Nginx web server** stub-status
+
+- **mySQL databases** (multiple servers, each showing: bandwidth, queries/s, handlers, locks, issues, tmp operations, connections, binlog metrics, threads, innodb metrics, etc)
+
+- **ISC Bind name server** (multiple servers, each showing: clients, requests, queries, updates, failures and several per view metrics)
+
+- **Postfix email server** message queue (entries, size)
+
+- **Squid proxy server** (clients bandwidth and requests, servers bandwidth and requests)
+
+- **Hardware sensors** (temperature, voltage, fans, power, humidity, etc)
+
+- **NUT UPSes** (load, charge, battery voltage, temperature, utility metrics, output metrics)
+
+- **Tomcat** (accesses, threads, free memory, volume)
+
+- **PHP-FPM** (multiple instances, each reporting connections, requests, performance)
+
+- **SNMP devices** can be monitored too (although you will need to configure these)
+
+And you can extend it, by writing plugins that collect data from any source, using any computer language.
