## Description

This project is a Linux server benchmarking script written in Bash. It serves as a system for evaluating CPU, disk, and network performance by orchestrating a set of standardized diagnostic tools.

The script integrates specialized utilities to measure storage throughput and latency across various block sizes, compute hardware scores for processor performance, and test network upload and download speeds using parallel connections. It is designed to generate comparative hardware reports and evaluate total network capacity across global locations.

The tool includes a mechanism for exporting all benchmark results into machine-readable JSON formats, which can be saved to local files or sent to remote API endpoints for automated performance monitoring and analysis.
