I have a REST webservice written using Spring MVC 4.latest
The service will be deployed on AWS Opsworks.
I want to have graph showing metrics like: tp90, total requests per second/hour/day, detailed by request uri if possible.
Also if possible DB queries response time.
I would like this to be put in something like Cloudwatch or maybe Ganglia (?)
Is there a framework that does this already?
Any other suggestions on how to achieve this?

In my spring boot project I would like to keep count of how many times the rest api endpoint responded with status 200. The spring boot actuator metrics endpoint came close to solving this issue for me out of the box.
However, the /metrics endpoint names provided the aggregate of responses by the endpoint method rather than each of the dynamic endpoints created through #PathVariable.
For example:
while I can get http://localhost:8084/myproject/actuator/metrics/http.server.requests?tag=status:200,uri:/api/users/{id}/books
I would like to do something like
http://localhost:8084/myproject/actuator/metrics/http.server.requests?tag=status:200,uri:/api/users/1/books
and
http://localhost:8084/myproject/actuator/metrics/http.server.requests?tag=status:200,uri:/api/users/2/books
and so on.
Is there an easy way to do this?
You can roll your own WebMvcTagsProvider. That's the place where you can hook into the tag generation. Have a look at DefaultWebMvcTagsProvider to get insight on how it is done for the default behaviour.
A note: The default tagging is done on purpose the way it is to hinder metrics explosion, because every metric name + tag combination is a new metric. So be aware of that.
I am trying to get Production metrics for my application. I am using Actuator on top of Spring Boot. Actuator exposes an endpoint for that "/metrics". I have Autowired CounterService class to get my own metrics data. I will be displaying the metrics data in one of our Application Management UI. The problem here is that I don't want all the default metrics data, as the Response JSON given back by the /metrics endpoint is kind off heavy for me to parse and most of the default metrics data are useless for me and give it to the UI. I have gone through the Spring Docs, I didn't get any help.
Appreciate your help on this!
Oh So I found a way to deal with the scenario. Actually Spring This GitHub Link pretty much solves my problem. Actuator Supports Reqex support to query for the data you need. So my url looks like this now : http://{{hostname}}/metrics/counter.*.count instead of this http://{{hostname}}/metrics/. Hope this helps.
Have you tried wrapping the response class from metrics, with a Custom class?
I have a spring mvc application which runs correctly,now another colleague wants to call the same functions from another application but he needs REST URL of my functions.
how is it possible to provide the same functionality through spring REST?
is it just with new annotations .please provide some resource to show me how to do it.
when server has a service, only legal clients which had any contracts with server can access it. And clients can use service by the way such as: use RestTemplate to get/post request to URL of service, and clients can get data as JSON, or XML type if you have an equivalent object as this image:
Also, a service can be support as a interface, ex: google search is a service supported by google, but it's not rest service.
If you know each other URL address you can consume each other REST API from java code by using RestTemplate object.
I would advise you to go over the Spring starter guide which deals with that issue, here is the link (Consuming a RESTful Web Service):
https://spring.io/guides/gs/consuming-rest/
I'm trying to learn SI (Spring Integration) but i'm a bit confused on the real usage of this.
As first example i would like to interact with a WebService but i dont understand what could be the difference from
Invoke a WebService Using SI
Invoke a Webservice using RestTemplate
So, what is the benefit of using SI (in Webservice context, or in other context)?
Looking the web, i havent find an article that explain:
Usually you will do in this way....
With SI you can do better - in this another way - and the benefit are....
To be more explicit on what i have to realize, this is an example:
1) I have to write an application (Standalone application) that have to collect some data in the system periodically and then invoke a Web Service that will store it.
2) The Web Service receive the call from the "clients" and store in the database.
My webservice will use REST.
The reason because i've think to use SI is that the Standalone Application should interact with different system
Webservice in first instance
A Web Mail, if the webservice is not achievable
File system if Web mail is not achievable too
If you only need to pull some data in a simple way and push it onwards to a REST service this does not "justify" the use of Spring Integration. A simple Spring (Boot) application combined with a scheduler will be sufficient.
But if you want to use a more complex data source for which an endpoint is available, you need transformations, complex and flexible routing is a high priority or even Enterprise Integration Patterns (EIP) then Spring Integration is for you. Have a look at the Overview and decide if it mentions something you consider as valuable to you.
Perhaps you will create additional value by mixing in Spring Batch if you need to process a lot of data.
But as I understand your current demand starting with just a RESTTemplate should do for the moment. Starting small will not prevent you from switching to Spring Integration later on.
Have a look at the various tutorials and guides provided by the Spring Boot project. There is even an example for Spring Integration.
I would like to have a REST service to expose the data read and processed from Spring XD. Similar to the one in the Analytics Server.
For example I would like my own functions which can be exposed similar to Counters and be able to access the data from a web browser.
Is there any tutorial? I have searched and found that Spring Boot is the one but I am looking for help on how I integrate it with Spring XD.
Would be very helpful if someone can point me to the instructions on how I can achieve this.
You can use trigger as a source with http-client as a processor processor to access any web browsers info regardless if it is a web service URL or not.
