Hello there, this guide will explain what the .wdb file type is and how to get server statistics from your Wowza server:

[How to monitor server connections, load, and application statistics](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-monitor-server-connections-load-and-application-statistics)

I hope you find this helpful.

Patrick, you can combine the access logs from each edge server into a single file, and use Sawmill to analyze the data:

Also, as Salvadore mentioned previously, if you are going to poll this every few seconds it would be best to modify the [connectioncounts and serverinfo HTTP Providers source code](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-monitor-server-connections-load-and-application-statistics#sourceCode) and output what is required. This way you can aggregate the data over time and generate your graphs as needed. There isn’t a direct supported alternative at this time.

Thanks Salvadore, I have read, but it is not as I expect

seem wowza manager monitor show history graph from .wdb file format (may be it collect from log files?). I would like to draw history graph by using data from .wdb

webservice “connectioncounts” return current connnection only. It not good idea if we call the service every 1 minute…?

I not sure if wowza have some API or solutions to access or extract data from .wdb

I found servermonitoring use data from servermonitoring 8088/enginemanager/server/monitoring/historical.jsdata. This service response as JSON data then generate graph…

I have 1 origin server, but 10 edge server. I would like to collect data and generate our graph. Any suggestion please let me know. Thank you!
