The Monitoring aspects of Eclipse MicroProfile
Eclipse MicroProfile (MP) aims at bringing Microservices to Enterprise Java by developing common standards that MP-compliant vendors then implement. The more classical specifications have often left out many details as vendor-specific - especially in the area of set up and running of the applications and servers. MicroProfile has decided that aspects of running the applications like telemetry and health checks should not be vendor specific but be part of the base specifications. In this talk you will learn about the three aspects of 'Monitoring' in Microprofile, which are health checks ("is my application running well or should it be restarted"), telemetry ("show me the thread count in the last hour") and distributed tracing ("who is calling who and why is that slow"). You will learn about the specs and see examples in action.
