ManageEngine, the real-time IT management company, announced an updated release of the ManageEngine Applications Manager performance monitoring software package. Applications Manager 10.2 extends single-pane-of-glass monitoring support to both Oracle JRockit and IBM Java Virtual Machine (JVM) environments. With support for JRockit and IBM JVM, Applications Manager now supports all major JVMs on the market.

JVMs are widely used in every industry and organization, and managing an enterprise infrastructure that includes a large JVM installation poses challenges. IT teams need tools that can help them optimize JVM environments efficiently – including the management of everything from Java garbage collection to thread deadlocks – but they often lack a single-pane-of-glass solution to this challenge.

"The Java platform is widely deployed across the enterprise, and Applications Manager can provide insight across the entire IT infrastructure in real time so administrators can take a proactive approach to monitoring," said Gibu Mathew, Director of Product Management, ManageEngine.

"Support for JRockit and IBM JVM monitoring in Applications Manager helps optimize application behavior by tracking Java garbage collection, abnormal memory or CPU consumption, thread deadlocks, and more. Now, IT teams can easily track how their Java runtime environment is performing and ensure high uptime of their business-critical applications."

The performance metrics provided by Applications Manager enable IT teams to track JVM performance, garbage collection time, heap memory and other key performance indicators, and monitor the threads of an application in production. Fault management capabilities support the configuration of thresholds for various attributes and automate corrective actions when alarms are generated.

Applications Manager also provides hundreds of out–of–the–box reports that facilitate capacity planning, performance management, and trend analysis across the enterprise applications infrastructure.

Applications Manager already supports IBM WebSphere Application Server and WebSphere MQ. Using IBM JVM is popular among users of IBM software. Similarly, Applications Manager supports Oracle WebLogic Server, and Oracle JRockit server is a high-performance combination. By supporting JRockit and IBM JVMs, ManageEngine ensures that customers can monitor the whole stack.
