Best way to publish logs and reports from shell scripts?

Hello,

I have been searching for some advice on this.

I'm new to linux in a sys-admin kind of role, and I'm often asked to get information by running basic commands in the linux shell. For example, how many jobs running, grep a number of files, run a random program and output the results, etc. and this all needs to be shared with management.

So far the only way to store this information is to send email via the shell scripts or to store in a simple text file. I don't really want to use a database since this information is so simple. I don't work for a web development shop so we don't have any sophisticated web tools. Would PHP/HTML be the best way, or just continue spamming people with emails?

How is this typically done in an organized way?

Thanks
