Monitoring Jenkins with Java Melody

Jenkins is a self-contained, open source automation server which can be used to automate all sorts of tasks related to building, testing, and delivering or deploying software.”

Jenkins is written in Java (making it an ideal candidate to be monitored by Instana) and can be extended via plugins. 

There are thousands of plugins, created and maintained by the community, that provide a range of functionality from unit testing, to security, to compliance reporting.

There is a monitoring plugin for Jenkins that provides a lot of data about what’s going on within Jenkins and about the tasks being performed by Jenkins. The Jenkins monitoring plugin relies on JavaMelody which is a basic metric charting tool. 

JavaMelody is an open source application used to monitor Java or Java EE application servers.

It measures and calculates statistical information based on application usage. The resulting data can be viewed in a variety of formats including evolution charts, which track various operations and server attributes over time. 

There are also robust reporting options that allow data to be exported in either HTML of PDF formats.
