## What it is
An Nginx module that provides virtual host traffic status monitoring, exposing per-server, filter, and upstream traffic statistics. It offers JSON status endpoints, on-the-fly control of traffic zones, and an optional React dashboard.

## Use cases
- monitor per-vhost request and traffic metrics in nginx
- expose nginx traffic stats as JSON for Prometheus scraping
- track traffic by country, user agent, or http status code
- limit traffic per server, filter, or upstream
- view a dashboard of nginx virtual host statistics

## When to choose
- you need detailed per-vhost and upstream traffic metrics from nginx
- you want JSON status endpoints for external monitoring systems
- you need on-the-fly reset or deletion of traffic zones

## When to avoid
- you use a web server other than nginx
- you need full APM tracing rather than traffic statistics
- you cannot recompile nginx with third-party modules
