Introscope: 3 Core components
> Agent/EPAgent
 Agent collects data from applications in JVM and CLR
 EPAgent collects data from other type of systems
> Enterprise Manager
 Receives data from Agent/EPAgent and stores
 Sends data to Workstation
> Workstation
 Used to view the data
 Customizable Dashboard and Report Template
 Transaction Tracing

Stretched out all 3 "Agent" ovals so there was room for "Agent" on a single line rather than putting the "t" on the next line
Reg Harbeck, 9/22/2008
Introscope: Agent
> The Agent rewrites byte code on-the-fly to insert
measurement points around method calls, and thus
collect performance metrics
> Agent collects metrics per interval (15 second) such as
 Response time of a method (average per interval)
 Method completion per interval (counter)
 Available/used memory or CPU usage
> The Agent reports metric data to the Enterprise Manager

Introscope: EPAgent
> The EPAgent meets a requirement to collect performance
data beyond a Java JVM or .NET CLR
> Write a Plug-in to collect what you want
 Platform/Operating System specific data
– CPU usage
– Disk usage
– Job on IBM i
> The EPAgent reports metric data to the Enterprise
Manager
> Once metric data is stored in EM,, it is treated as the
same as data from a normal Agent

Introscope Transaction Tracing
> View & trace individual transactions
 Database reads/writes
 Function calls
> Store & compare results for different processes
> Subset by
y e.g.
g transaction time
 e.g. Reads which take > x milliseconds
> Produces LOTS of data for analysis
