# Web Application optimization pack

The *Web Application* optimization pack provides a component type apt for monitoring the performances from the end-user perspective of a generic web application, to evaluate the configuration of the technologies in the underlying stack.

The bundled component type provides Akamas with performance metrics representing concepts like throughput, response time, error rate, and user load, split into different levels of detail such as transaction, page, and single request.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.akamas.io/akamas-docs/3.4.0/reference/optimization-packs/web-application-pack.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
