Kieker

Description

Kieker has been designed for continuous monitoring in production environments, imposing only a low performance overhead. Use cases in teaching, research, and practice include the following areas: performance evaluation, self-adaptation control (e.g., online capacity management), failure detection and diagnosis, simulation (replaying workload traces for driving simulations; measurement and logging of simulation data; analysis of simulation results), and software re-engineering (e.g., extraction of architectural and usage models).

Requirements

• Java 8 or later
