The app doesn't work off of logs. Instead, it includes a modular input (written in Python) that connects to the websites and measures the response times. The modular input then writes out events directly into Splunk.
I did it this way because:
- Setup is much simpler (you don't have to track down the log files and parse them)
- You can monitor websites without having to install anything on the server that you want to monitor

Actually, how does the "Website Monitoring" app store the ping history? So that, in case there is an index to save the history with definite message format. Because I would like to apply those data pattern to "Eventgen" app for direct import into such index.

It creates events directly in the main index. Alternatively, you can tell the app to send the data to a custom index on the setup screen.
