JMX

Monitor a whole BOBJ system similar to what Wily Introscope was doing, but with preliminary configuration as simple as a checkbox tick.

Monitor any JAVA process. Tomcats are usually the most important once in BOBJ deployment.

Problem:

Monitor BOBJ system including OS metrics, with minimal setup efforts, convenient analytical features and persistent storage.

Monitor and configure multiple Tomcats (or any JAVA processes) remotely, from the single from a single, user-friendly interface.

Solution:

Comprehensive BOBJ Monitoring:

BOBJ JMX allows you quickly access all BOBJ Metrics, monitor their dynamic, filter, sort, chart and export them.

With included OS level monitoring, you can see what is going on all your BOBJ hosts (overview metrics), without need to login to machines or relay on other third party tools.

Effortless Tomcat Monitoring:

Monitor one or multiple Tomcats from a single intuitive dashboard.

Tomcat exposes 94 beans and 1,378 metrics for monitoring and configuration. These beans are logically organized, and you can easily search or filter among them.

Each bean and metric comes with detailed developer-provided descriptions, ensuring you always know what you're looking at.

Configuration Made Easy:

Quickly inspect configuration settings.

For example, Tomcat has 19 parameters related to TIMEOUT.

Instead of searching through configuration files, BiWhy displays them all in seconds.

Dynamic Configuration Updates (Future Enhancement):

Do you know that you can change parameters, that require app restart to take effect, without restarting it, if developers exposed corresponding functionality?

Query Additional Data (Future Enhancement):

You can query more data from your app though OPERATIONS with functions exposed by developers.

Data Collection and Sharing:

BiWhy enables the compact storage of all collected data in a local database or your preferred database (functionality on demand).

Share this data with others for in-depth analysis, allowing for collaborative insights into your BOBJ system's performance.

OS Metrics (with multiple hosts, you will see all on the same screen):
