This book explains in detail how to choose the right architecture and apply best practices during your software development cycle to avoid technical debt and support every business requirement. Choosing the right architecture model to support your business requirements is one of the key decisions you need to take when a new product is being created from scratch or is being refactored to support new business demands. This book gives you insights into the most common architectural models and guides you when and where they can be used. During this journey, you’ll see cutting-edge technologies surrounding the Spring products, and understand how to use agile techniques such as DevOps and continuous delivery to take your software to production effectively.

Chapter 12. Monitoring

Once an application is deployed to a production environment, monitoring is one of the key aspects that comes into play. Here, we need to take control of uncommon and unexpected behaviors; it’s essential to be aware of how the application is working so we can take action as soon as possible in order to solve any undesired behavior.

This chapter gives some recommendations with regards to the techniques and tools that can be used to monitor the performance of an application, bearing in mind technical and business metrics.

Throughout this chapter, we will cover the following topics:

  • Monitoring
    • Application Monitoring
    • Business Monitoring
  • Monitoring Spring applications
  • APM application monitoring tools
    • Response time
    • Database metrics
    • JVM metrics
    • Web transactions
