JBoss Application Server Monitoring

Essential server parameters and JBoss Application Server’s own metrics in a specialised package of checks, the starting point for troubleshooting.

Performance and availability of JavaEE applications

JBoss is one of the leading JavaEE application servers on the market and a popular choice for deploying applications. Monitoring application performance and availability is the key to managing them effectively.

The Sentinet³ JBoss Application Server Pattern is a package of checks specialised for JBoss and its server. IT administrators use it to keep track of the server’s essential parameters, such as RAM and CPU, the starting point for proper troubleshooting, together with JBoss Application Server’s own metrics.
