Abstract	Unix-based operating systems form the backbone of mission-critical enterprise environments. Given their prominence, ensuring their reliability, performance, and security is of utmost importance. To accomplish this organizations would need to design a robust and proactive monitoring strategy. However, traditional monitoring approaches face several challenges, including tool fragmentation, excessive log data, alert fatigue, and scalability limitations. This paper explores key components of Unix system monitoring, covering system resource monitoring, process and services monitoring, and security monitoring. It further evaluates the tools that can be used to accomplish this monitoring. The paper examines the role of AI-driven centralized monitoring platforms in overcoming monitoring challenges.
