At May's meeting we will be talking about the smaller tools that make our life easier: LogStash, Metrics, and JVM troubleshooting with VisualVM.
Zach Cox of Pongr fame will talk about Yammer's open-source real-time metrics tool called Metrics.
Kevin Nuckolls of Banno will talk about the benefits of centralizing your logs using LogStash. Once you consolidate them, you can search, parse, and mine the data.
Rich Harms, the CTO at Right Stuf will discuss JVM memory analysis with VisualVM.
