So Oracle (née BEA) JRockit has Mission Control, anyone with rapstar money to use has CA Wily Introscope and everyone else had Sun JConsole, which did not console (sorry) much the developer wanting to profile their application during runtime.
Therefore I was very happy to notice (belatedly) VisualVM tool from Sun, which will obviously replace the monitoring functionality of JConsole. Looks nice and is extendible, let’s see where they will go with it.
