Improve JVM dashboards

Open milanvdm opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

There is quite a feature gap between the JVM dashboard that comes out of the box with Datadog and the one from ElasticAPM.

After a conversation, some more specific notes about the screenshots.

Useful information missing in the JVM Dashboard:

  • Number of classes loaded
  • GC Collection Size -> Comparison between New & Old
  • Heap usage, breakdown per node (or deployment). ie. to see OOM on a specific deployment

The garbage collection New Gen & Old Gen can be collected with the jmx configuration. It would be great to populate visualisations when the data is present.

Top 10 dashboards are a nice to have, but not as important as some of the other features mentioned above.
