From BAM 2.4.0 release onwards, the previous BAM activity monitoring components have been deprecated. They were replaced by a new implementation of activity search and monitoring with many more added features.
The following artifacts will no longer be shipped:
- With BAM distribution: the activity monitoring sample and the activity monitoring toolboxes.
- With BAM data agents: activity monitoring data agent which has so far been available under 'Service Data Publishing'
The newer activity search component has its own Jaggery app which can use to query data directly from Cassandra using indices rather than use Hive scripts for summarising data. It will also be shipped with the BAM distribution by default, thereby negating the need for installation of a dedicated toolbox.
The message tracer will replace the activity data publisher for dumping SOAP payloads to BAM. It will also serve in correlating messages based on ID.
