Episode 96. Watching Metrics w/Micrometer and Statsd

You'll run it everywhere there's a production system. Some kind of Metrics collector like Statsd or InfluxDB. They work like magic, reporting on the health of your application. but how does it really happen? We dive in on how these Application Performance Management tools work and how do they really "see into" your application. We demistify all this magic, and actually describe how to add "new" metrics and how to publish it! If you ever worked in a production application, and were wondering how do these metrics get graphed and collected, well, wonder-no-more! We go deep into Micrometer (the SLF4J of Metrics) and how it all works! http://www.javaoffheap.com/datadog We thank DataDogHQ for sponsoring this podcast episode Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE to our cool NewsCast OffHeap! http://www.javaoffheap.com/ Micrometer https://micrometer.io/ Creating Meters https://micrometer.io/docs/concepts#_meters Spring Boot and Micrometer https://spring.io/blog/2018/03/16/micrometer-spring-boot-2-s-new-application-metrics-collector Statsd https://github.com/statsd/statsd Do you like the episodes?

Om Podcasten

This podcast talks about how to program in Java; not your tipical system.out.println("Hello world"), but more like real issues, such as O/R setups, threading, getting certain components on the screen or troubleshooting tips and tricks in general. The format is as a podcast so that you can subscribe to it, and then take it with you and listen to it on your way to work (or on your way home), and learn a little bit more (or reinforce what you knew) from it.
