What is VisualVM?

VisualVM is an advanced tool utilized for monitoring and diagnosing Java applications starting from version 1.4, featuring support for various technologies such as jvmstat, JMX, Serviceability Agent (SA), and Attach API from multiple vendors. It is tailored to accommodate the varied requirements of application developers, system administrators, quality assurance engineers, and end users. For each active process, VisualVM presents critical runtime information including process ID (PID), main class, Java process arguments, JVM version, JDK installation path, JVM flags, and system properties. Furthermore, it monitors an array of performance indicators such as CPU consumption, garbage collection (GC) activities, heap and metaspace memory utilization, the total number of loaded classes, and the active thread count. In addition, VisualVM incorporates fundamental profiling capabilities that enable detailed examination of application performance and memory management, providing both sampling and instrumentation profiling techniques to suit different analytical requirements. This extensive suite of tools not only enhances the troubleshooting process but also plays a significant role in the optimization of Java applications, making VisualVM an essential asset for developers and system administrators alike.
