Performance Monitoring with Simple System Monitoring Application (Canary)
- SSMA is an incredibly useful tool for performance monitoring, capacity planning and problem analysis of Sun Ray (and other) servers. SSMA gathers system data on a regular basis creating an invaluable system resource and performance profile for your servers.
- The original work for SSMA came from a Sun internal tool called Canary. The previous project owner, Sean Meighan, was instrumental in making this project a reality.
