From: oetiker If you know MRTG, you can think of RRDtool as a reimplementation of MRTGs
-graphing and logging features. Magnitudes faster and more flexible than you ever
-thought possible Some call it the industry standard data logging and graphing application.
+Others use it to write their very own full custom monitoring scripts.
+Most people will probably get in touch with RRDtool through some
+third party monitoring application. RRD is the Acronym for Round Robin Database. RRD is a system to store and
display time-series data (i.e. network bandwidth, machine-room temperature,
server load average). It stores the data in a very compact way that will not
-expand over time, and it presents useful graphs by processing the data to
-enforce a certain data density. It can be used either via simple wrapper
-scripts (from shell or Perl) or via frontends that poll network devices and
-put a friendly user interface on it.About RRDtool
