Hello stackoverflow'ers,

May I know what are the typical metrics that application developers usually find interesting with the use of JMX other than:

• CPU Utilization
• Memory consumption

Answer 1

I would add:

• Class loaders behaviour
• Threads

Answer 2

• memory usage diagram (you can see gc runs and detect memory leaks)
• stack trace of specified thread
• jvm uptime, OS information
• all jmx exposed data with your application
