Soup-to-Nuts Application Management with JMX

Known as JSR 3 and developed by the Java Community Process, JMX (Java Management Extensions) represents a 100 percent Java complete solution for managing and monitoring Java applications, Java services, and even Java Virtual Machine (JVM).

Perhaps you've gotten the impression that JMX does nothing but add another time-consuming step in your application development process. Perhaps you figure you can handle the management of your final product without it. Well, try to ignore the following advantages that JMX offers:

A final product that's easy to install, configure, and maintain, winning your client's respect.
Scalable, dynamic application management, with plugging and component-based advantages.
Application status reports, containing statistics and diagrams.
Strong notification support for monitoring the states and conditions of your application's actions.
Easy integration with your existing management solution.
Straightforward
Low time and cost at all implementation levels

Now, if you are ready to see JMX at work, let me tell you that in this article you can read about JMX architecture, JMX API and of course you will see complete JMX codes which demonstrate JMX management/monitor capabilities. To be more precisely, in this article you will see:
