Alfresco Hackathon May 2020 - TietoEvry

[EddieMay]

TietoEvry are an Alfresco partner focused on the engineering and manufacturing industries. For this hackathon they contributed two teams. Their first team focused on implementing Garbage Collection log monitoring in Alfresco.

Project Lead: Filip Břuska

Project Team: David Grobelný, Ludvík Hobza, Michal Sionkala, Vítězslav Sliž

Project Title: GC log monitoring

Aim of Project: If you face performance issues, one of the most important indicators is Garbage Collector (GC) log. The aim of the project was to automate the GC log analysis and display the results in Alfresco.

Our team decided to integrate Alfresco with two tools (GCEasy and GCPlot) used for GC log analysis. Output from those tools is stored to Alfresco and displayed in Alfresco admin console or ADF admin tab.

Project Outcome:

Integrationof GCEasy works fine, although we need to fix UI a little.  The code is deployable as it's just jar created by SDK4.1 so nothing special, you just need a dependency to SDK project in pom. For ADF, you can use Docker.

Team discussionsHackathon demo

Asked what the team enjoyed most about Hackathon, they replied having the chance to work on something not directly related to client work. Scratching a code itch! They also enjoyed the chance to socialise, especially with their colleagues after two months of lockdown.
