 # MZBench server API
 
-API allows to drive bench execution and gather metrics. It could not execute scripts locally or validate because these functions are not remote. As other HTTP APIs it has some endpoints and POST/GET parameters. Please notice that if log/metric compression is enabled at server.config -- you need to be able to handle compressed answers from MZBench server.
