# **SMPShield: Your Minecraft Server Monitoring Solution**<\/p>\n
## **Overview**
\nSMPShield is an innovative plugin designed for Minecraft servers that provides real-time monitoring of critical server statistics through an easy-to-use API. Whether you’re a server owner, developer, or community manager, SMPShield empowers you to gain insights into your server’s performance and manage it efficiently.<\/p>\n
## **Key Features**
\n– **Real-Time Server Statistics**: Access vital information about your server\u2019s performance, including:
\n – **CPU Usage**: Monitor how much CPU your server is consuming, helping you identify performance bottlenecks.
\n – **RAM Usage**: Track both allocated and used memory, ensuring your server runs smoothly without memory leaks.
\n – **TPS (Ticks Per Second)**: Get real-time TPS updates to ensure your players experience lag-free gameplay.

## **API Endpoints**
\n– **\/status**: Returns a JSON object with current server statistics:
\n“`json
\n{
\n “tps”: 20.14,
\n “cpu_usage”: 3.50,
\n “total_memory”: 12902400000,
\n “free_memory”: 11632963584,
\n “players_online”: 0
\n}
\n“`
\n– **\/players**: Returns a list of currently online players:
\n“`json
\n[
