Re: [Hawkular-dev] Is this an applicable use-case for Hawkular
Hi Anton
It sounds like from your scenario, you are just interested in reporting a specific
business event, in which case I believe it is possible to just create your own metric with
data points, using the metrics REST API - however I'll let the members of the metrics
team comment more on that.
If you are interested in recording more information about your business transaction, then
you may want to consider Hawkular BTM. Its currently possible to capture the 'call
trace' of a business transaction instance and analyse the information using Kibana -
you can also extract relevant properties from the txn (e.g. affiliate) and use that
information to focus any queries.
The intention is to integrate at the backend with Hawkular Metrics and Alerts, but this
isn't in place at the moment.

Gary

Hello
I have been watching the developments of Hawkular, and am really impressed!
I have a few questions about Hawkular.
Hawkular seems to be primarily focused on server metrics and monitoring.
I am, however, interested in exploring the possibility of using it for
monitoring and alerting of specific business events. For example, lets say I
had an online shop and I sold my widgets via affiliates. Would it be
possible to capture the sales event, persist and display metrics - so the
affiliate partner could login and see their activities? And to send such
events to Hawkular, is there a java client?
When using the server agent, are captured events sent async?
Thanks
