Azure Application Insights - Java Performance Monitoring

Image
Configure and monitor JMX metrics for your Java application using Azure Application Insights.                    JMX (Java Management Extensions) metrics are a set of performance and resource utilization data points that can be collected from a Java application. JMX provides a standardized way to manage and monitor applications, system objects, devices, and service-oriented networks. JMX metrics typically include: Memory Usage : Information about heap and non-heap memory usage. Garbage Collection : Data on the frequency and duration of garbage collection. Thread Usage : Details on the number of active, idle, and blocked threads. Class Loading : Metrics on the number of loaded, unloaded, and total classes in the JVM. CPU Usage : Information on the CPU usage by the JVM process. Custom Metrics : Application-specific metrics that can be defined by the developer, such as request counts, error rates, and transaction times. ...

Convert Azure VM Security Type - Trusted Launch to Standard to Enable ASR on existing workloads.

                                        This document outlines the process for changing the Azure VM Security Type from Trusted Launch to Standard to enable Azure Site Recovery (ASR) on existing workloads. Trusted Launch is a way to enable foundational compute security on Azure Generation 2 VMs. It protects your virtual machines against advanced and persistent attack techniques like boot kits and rootkits by combining infrastructure technologies such as Secure Boot, vTPM, and Boot Integrity Monitoring. Currently, Azure Site Recovery does not support Trusted Launch VMs, despite the Azure Portal defaulting to Trusted Launch when deploying virtual machines. This limitation has caused issues for customers who build environments with the default Trusted Launch setting, only to discover that ASR cannot be enabled. As a result, the entire environment often needs to be rebuilt...
