Archimedes is a passive application monitoring server built on Drupal but designed to facilitate any web based application. Archimedes achieves passive application monitoring by installing an Archimedes client on your web hosted application. In Drupal's case, its installing the Archimedes Client module.
The Client collects up information about the application and sends it back to the server where the server reads it in and creates or updates the site node that represents that client on the server.
