An architecture on proactive detecting, quarantining, and terminating resource leakage of Java-based applications

Because of the unique feature of platform-independent and the advantages of easy-to-develop and easy-to-deploy, Java-based applications are widely adopted by large-scale software-intensive information systems, and the monitoring-related functions in such environments are becoming more and more important. One single Application Server can deploy multiple instances of applications in Java EE environments, but the support of Application Server monitor tools does not evolve as the progress of Application Server itself. This paper will propose a new monitor architecture “Thread-based Monitor System Architecture (TMSA)”, which will exercise Thread-based technologies to detect and analyze the conditions of resource-leakage in Application Server, and proactively quarantine and terminate the potential abnormal resource-leakage processes, in order to increase the stability of the whole system dramatically.
