JMX and Spring: Manageability for Spring-based Applications

This session describes management of Java resources using the Java Management Extensions JMX API. JMX provides a unified framework to instrument Java systems with monitoring and management capabilities.

This session covers JMX 1.2 specification, system monitoring, management needs, and the creation of agents which dynamically manage resources based on monitoring. We cover many of the new features of the Remote JMX access.

The JMX support in Spring provides features to easily and transparently integrate Spring applications into a JMX infrastructure. Some of the tougher tasks of JMX develop are made easy with Spring. We'll look at automatic
ObjectNames, automatic registration and remote connector proxies as we review Spring's JMX features.
