Greetings, all. It's Patrick from Webapper Services, LLC, and SeeFusion is our bouncing baby product. I thought I'd post some tidbits right from the horse's mouth, so to speak, to give you all more information about the product. (Apologies in advance for the long-ish post.)
First, SeeFusion is based on years of consulting engagements, working with hundreds of the world's largest ColdFusion applications. The founders and senior architects at Webapper are all former Allaire/Macromedia developers, and we continue to work with Macromedia today by providing consulting to their customers. We created SeeFusion because we needed it. We've used all the "close-but-no-cigar" tools over the years--cfstat, perfmon, top/ps -ef | grep/tail (for *nix/Solaris), etc. But nothing (even in combination) gave us quite the info we wanted. So, when ColdFusion became a Java app server, we decided to write something ourselves. Enter, SeeFusion. Some "niggly bits" (as one of our British Co-Founders likes to say): * As someone pointed out, the two-hour time trial restarts after every server restart. We did that so developers could use it as much as needed for free. * Agreed re: screenshots. We're working on a whole host of updates for SeeFusion.com, including a much-improved user manual, more/better screenshots, more/better FAQs, etc. * It'll work on any version of CFMX or later. In fact, there's no ColdFusion-specific code in SeeFusion, so it'll run on any app server that follows the J2EE Servlet 2.3/JDBC 3.0 specifications. (We're also planning on releasing a "SeeJava" version for the Java community, but that's another thread.) * We're in the testing phase for an Enterprise version, which will feature the ability to save SeeFusion metrics to a DB (optional), along with a "dashboard" feature that provides a "health check" snapshot of large numbers of servers. * Load testing is one of our specialties, and we specifically developed SeeFusion to be ultra-lightweight. It's virtually undetectable as an overhead process, even under load. * For the record, Perfmon isn't even close. ;) We're very committed to improving SeeFusion early and often (kind of like voting in my hometown Chicago!). I welcome anyone to contact me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] with questions, problems, suggestions, etc. Thanks to James for the original post. Cheers to all.
