Hi,

( We had previously held this survey on serviceability-dev at openjdk.java.net, to expand the audience I've posted here and extended the response window )

The HotSpot Serviceability Agent (SA) is a set of APIs and tools for debugging HotSpot Virtual Machine and has been a part of the JVM/JDK for a long time, however we don't have a lot of data about how it is used in practice, especially outside of Oracle. Therefore, we have created an initial survey to gather more information and help us evaluate and understand how others are using it.

If you have used, or have (support) processes that utilize the Serviceability Agent or related APIs, then we would definitely appreciate if you would complete this survey:

https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/CF3MYDL

We are specifically interested in your use-cases and how SA is effective for you in resolving JVM issues.

The survey will remain open through April 23rd. The results of the survey will be made public after the survey closes.

Regards, Stephen
