--explanation--

Monitoring refers to observing or tracking the performance or status of something, usually to ensure it operates smoothly or to identify issues. For example:

The team is monitoring the servers to prevent downtime. - This means the team is actively watching the servers to ensure they work without interruptions.

The Future Continuous tense describes actions that will be ongoing at a specific point in the future. It is formed using will be + verb ending in -ing. For example:

The IT team will be troubleshooting the network issues tomorrow afternoon. - This indicates that the IT team will actively work on fixing network problems during a particular time in the future.

Brian uses the Future Continuous tense to show that he will be actively tracking the system's performance to ensure everything runs smoothly.
