Abstract: Thermostat is more than just an open source tool for performance monitoring and analysis of the JVM. It is also an extensible platform which supports development of many different data capture and visualization tools, allowing users to collate and display disparate data from a runtime environment. One such extension currently being developed by Red Hat is a Byteman plugin. Events and data captured by Byteman rules can be reported to the Thermostat agent and displayed in the Thermostat user interface. This talk will provide a preview of the Byteman Thermostat plugin in action. Byteman will be used to inject rules into a running application and into the underlying JDK runtime. These rules will all use the Thermostat-Byteman Helper, provided as part of the plugin implementation, to pass a variety of data through to the Thermostat agent. The data will be collected and rendered using several of the available Thermostat information displays. By making simple changes to the loaded rule sets and the corresponding displays we will show how you can rapidly shift focus from viewing one set of application events to another.
