deploying java plugins in cloud foundry

Question

I have deployed few apps in cloud foundry and i want to see the CPU usage and Memory consumption etc like we see through Jprofile,JMX etc.

So can i deploy them as a plugin in my space if so - what are the steps. not expecting a full length answer you can give some blog url or reference. is deploying a plugin is same as application deployment.

Any other way to see the usage . Because cloud foundry provider shows very basic usage in numbers but what i want is a graphical interface.

Any hint on this.

To monitor Pivotal Cloud Foundry, there are multiple tools available. For platform monitoring you can use PCF Metrics , Data Dog , New Relic , Prometheus + Grafana .

Most of these do need the JMX Bridge tile installed.

For app performance monitoring you can install or setup tools like New Relic or App Dynamics . You will have to pay for these tools.

Register with network.pivotal.io . Sign in and you will get a list of all tiles from Pivotal and 3rd party vendors.
