It struck me today when I was writing my most recent blog over at Rittman Mead that I’ve been playing with visualising OBIEE metrics for years now. Back in 2009 I wrote about using something called JManage to pull metrics out of OBIEE 10g via JMX: Still with OBIEE 10g in 2011, I was using rrdtool and some horrible-looking tcl hacking to get the metrics out through jmx : 2014 brought with it DMS and my first forays with Graphite for storing & visualising data:

OBIEE’s Systems Management component exposes configuration and performance data through Java MBeans. As discussed in other posts these can be be accessed through several different ways: JConsole (see also here) oc4j Windows PerfMon (although I guess this isn’t actually using MBeans/JMX?) saw.dll?perfmon BI Management Pack Since it’s a standard java technology being used we can in theory use anything that is designed for monitoring mbeans via jmx. Doing some Googling I discovered jManage.
