You can either send all events or create filters. Of course, once the events are in a SQL database, you can use any of the usual tools to create a web interface.</p></li>\n<li><p>You can use ASP.NET\'s <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms998306.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">HealthMonitoring</a> configuration section to configure .NET to send all ASP.NET-related events directly to a SQL database.
