<h2 title="Package org.eclipse.microprofile.metrics Description">Package org.eclipse.microprofile.metrics Description</h2>
<div class="block">MicroProfile Metrics
<h2>Rational</h2>
<p>
To ensure reliable operation of software it is necessary to monitor essential
system parameters. There is already JMX as standard to expose metrics, but
remote-JMX is not easy to deal with and especially does not fit well in a
polyglot environment where other services are not running on the JVM. To
enable monitoring in an easy fashion, the MicroProfile Metrics specification
provides a standard to instrument an application with metrics and provides a
simple REST endpoint for integration with monitoring services.
<h2>Adding Metrics</h2>
<p>
MicroProfile Metrics provides 5 different metric types that can be used to
instrument an application. Developers can create an accompanying
<a href="../../../../org/eclipse/microprofile/metrics/Metadata.html" title="class in org.eclipse.microprofile.metrics"><code>Metadata</code></a> object to supply
the metric's name, description, display name, tags, and units. Once the
metric and the metadata are registered against the application
<a href="../../../../org/eclipse/microprofile/metrics/MetricRegistry.html" title="class in org.eclipse.microprofile.metrics"><code>MetricRegistry</code></a>, the
metrics will be available in the REST endpoints.
<h2>Metric Types</h2>
<p>
<a href="../../../../org/eclipse/microprofile/metrics/Counter.html" title="interface in org.eclipse.microprofile.metrics"><code>Counter</code></a> is used to measure
an increasing/decreasing value.
<p>
Example usage:
<pre>
<code>
Counter count = metricRegistry.counter(metadata);
count.inc();
</code>
</pre>
<a href="../../../../org/eclipse/microprofile/metrics/Counter.html" title="interface in org.eclipse.microprofile.metrics"><code>Gauge</code></a> is used to provide the
immediate measurement of a value.
<p>
Example usage:
<pre>
<code>
Gauge&lt;Double&gt; temperature = new Gauge&lt;Double&gt;() {
public Double getValue() {
return getTemperature();
}
};
metricRegistry.register(metadata, temperature);
</code>
</pre>
<a href="../../../../org/eclipse/microprofile/metrics/Meter.html" title="interface in org.eclipse.microprofile.metrics"><code>Meter</code></a> is used to measure the
frequency of an event.
<p>
Example usage:
<pre>
<code>
Meter meter = metricRegistry.meter(metadata);
meter.mark();
</code>
</pre>
<a href="../../../../org/eclipse/microprofile/metrics/Histogram.html" title="interface in org.eclipse.microprofile.metrics"><code>Histogram</code></a> is used to
sample and compute the distribution of values
<p>
Example usage:
<pre>
<code>
Histogram histogram = metricRegistry.histogram(metadata);
histogram.update(score);
</code>
</pre>
<a href="../../../../org/eclipse/microprofile/metrics/Timer.html" title="interface in org.eclipse.microprofile.metrics"><code>Timer</code></a> is used to measure the
duration of an event as well as the frequency of occurrence.
<p>
Example usage:
<pre>
<code>
Timer timer = metricRegistry.timer(metadata);
Timer.Context context = timer.time();
... // code that will be timed
context.close();
</code>
