AdventNet ManageEngine Enhances Rapid Application Manageability
With JMX Certification and Advanced Innovation
Pleasanton, California, June 25 2002
AdventNet Inc., a pioneer in rapid automated management of
applications, announced the JMX (Java Management Extensions)
certification of AdventNet ManageEngine - a mature, stable
product available for more than two years with wide deployment.
It is a testimony to AdventNet's expertise and innovation,
being the first independent JMX implementation certified for
compliance. AdventNet ManageEngine and the underlying technology,
AdventNet Agent Toolkit Java/JMX Edition are both certified
JMX compliant.
Christophe Ebro, JMX Specification and Maintenance Lead at
Sun Microsystems said, "AdventNet has been one of the
early adopters of the JMX technology. The compatibility of
their AdventNet ManageEngine with the JMX specification is
a good thing for the JMX Community, increasing the choice
of truly compatible products. I am pleased to have AdventNet
in the JSR 160 expert group, following their recent involvement
into the Java Community Process".
AdventNet has built a rich set of features in its scalable,
high performance implementation, far beyond the JMX specification.
This includes support for advanced services like fine-grained
security, clustering, master-subagent architecture, an embedded
rule engine for dynamic hot deployment of business rules for
threshold based notifications etc. It provides out-of-the-box
support for adapters such as SNMP, HTTP, Web Services, RMI
etc. It also automatically generates JMX MBeans from various
data sources like EJBs, servlets, Java APIs, log files, databases
and SNMP agents.
Unlike previous technologies, ManageEngine enables exposing
management information from applications as JMX MBeans post
development. Further, going beyond just monitoring, ManageEngine
provides the automatic ability to dynamically administer and
control applications during runtime.
"We are very pleased at being the first independent
vendor to reach the important milestone of JMX compliance.
AdventNet's clear focus has always been on helping our customers
achieve business benefits rapidly. With the new certification,
our customers can now reap all the benefits of the JMX specification
and much more. AdventNet is also committed to offering its
JMX centric innovation to the JMX standards-setting process",
said Dr. Tony Thomas, AdventNet's Chief Technology Officer.
JMX is increasingly being used by enterprises as the management
standard for managing Java and J2EE applications. AdventNet
ManageEngine is the only product to instantly offer real-time,
standards-based and business-oriented application management
information based on JMX. It has been hailed by customers
and analysts alike as a key tool to bridge the "developer-operations
divide". It is available for full download at www.adventnet.com.
