Abstract
Due to the emersion of J2EE (Java 2, Enterprise Edition), many enterprises inside and outside of the country have been developing the enterprise applications appropriate to the J2EE model. With the help of the component model of Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) which is the J2EE core technology, we can develop the distributed object applications quite simple. EJB application can be implemented by using the component-oriented object transaction middleware and the most applications utilize the distributed transaction. Due to these characteristics, EJB technology became popular and then the study for EJB based application has been done quite actively. However, the research of techniques for the performance monitoring during run-time of the EJB applications has not been done enough. In this paper, we propose the techniques for monitoring the performance of EJB Application on the run time. First, we explore the workflow for the EJB application service and classily the internal operation into several elements. The proposed techniques provide monitoring the performance elements between the classified elements. We can also monitor by extracting the performance information like state transition and process time of the bean which is related to the lifetime occurred during one workflow, and the resource utilization rate.
