+* [Home](help)
+
+## Endpoints
+
+Currently, there are two endpoints for statistics available
+
+-	`/stats` Returns some basic statistics of the current node
+-	`/stats/caching` Returns statistics of cache or lock instances, which are used for the currend node
+
+### `/stats`
+
+The statistics contain data about the worker performance, the last cron call, number of reports, inbound and outbound packets, posts and comments.
+
+### `/stats/caching`
+
+The statistics contain data about the opcache, the used caching (like memory usage, hits/misses, entries, ...) and the used lock (including the cache data)
+
+## Configuration
+
+Please define 'stats_key' in your local.config.php in the 'system' section to be able to access the statistics page at /stats?key=your-defined-stats_key
+
+## 3rd Party monitoring tools
