PHP-FPM Monitoring

PHP-FPM (FastCGI Process Manager) is an alternative PHP FastCGI implementation with some additional features useful for sites of any size, especially busier sites. PHP-FPM not only makes configuration of FastCGI pools, but also enhances some of the FastCGI internals and increases error reporting, script termination, etc.
