JDK Flight Recorder (JFR) is a powerful monitoring and troubleshooting framework built directly into the Java runtime. Designed to be an in-production monitoring tool, JFR has access to all the internal data of the JVM and can capture and surface data on a fine-grained level with extremely low overhead. This talk will give an overview of JFR, showcase the current feature, as well as highlight some features coming in the future. Spoiler alert: JFR Event Streaming, which enables several new and exciting continuous monitoring use cases, will be covered.
