# Sending PingDirectory metrics with StatsD

You can monitor the PingDirectory server using StatsD and Splunk.

In order to send metrics from PingDirectory to Splunk with StatsD, you will need to create a StatsD Monitoring Endpoint. On the Splunk side you will need to open the corresponding port to receive the metrics.
