# 简介 / abstract
* 核心理论为[Google Dapper论文：Dapper, a Large-Scale Distributed Systems Tracing Infrastructure](http://research.google.com/pubs/pub36356.html),英语有困难的同学可参考[国内翻译](http://duanple.blog.163.com/blog/static/70971767201329113141336/)
* 本分析系统能通过动态字节码技术，对现有的JAVA应用或J2EE应用进行监控和数据收集，并针对应用进场进行准实时告警。此外提供大量的调用性能分析功能，解决目前的监控系统主要监控进程、端口而非应用实际性能的问题。
* 支持国内常用的dubbo以及dubbox等常见RPC框架，支持应用异常的邮件告警
* skywalking-sdk层面提供的埋点API，同步阻塞访问时间小于100μs
* 通过[byte-buddy](https://github.com/raphw/byte-buddy)，插件将通过动态字节码机制，避免代码侵入性，完成监控。动态代码模式埋点，同步阻塞访问时间应在200-300μs
* 提供一定的日志数据分析和展现能力，减少或者避免使用团队的二次开发
* SkyWalking is an open source Large-Scale Distributed Systems Tracing Infrastructure, also been known as APM(Application Performance Management) tool. SkyWalking provides a solution to help monitor and analysis a Large-Scale Distributed Systems.
* SkyWalking supports popular rpc frameworks, such as [dubbo](https://github.com/alibaba/dubbo), [dubbox](https://github.com/dangdangdotcom/dubbox), etc., supports email-alert when application occurs unexpected exception。
* SkyWalking's basic API, execution time of blocking saving span must less than 100μs.
* By using [byte-buddy](https://github.com/raphw/byte-buddy) (Thanks to [raphw](https://github.com/raphw)), plugins use dynamic byte code generation to avoid invasive codes. plugins API, execution time of blocking saving span must between 200μs and 300μs, including execution time of dynamic byte code.
* Provide trace log analysis and presentation capabilities, Reduce or avoid add-on functions development.

# Quick Start

## 部署第三方软件 / Required of third party softwares
- JDK 1.7
- zookeeper 3.4.6
- apache hbase 1.1.2
- mysql
- tomcat 7
- redis-3.0.5

## 插件支持的JDK / Supported jdk version
- 1.7以上版本 / support 1.7+

## 编译与部署 / Build and deploy
- 服务端发布版本[下载](https://github.com/wu-sheng/sky-walking/releases)  (.tar.gz)
- Download Server release version. [Download](https://github.com/wu-sheng/sky-walking/releases)  (.tar.gz)
- [配置应用服务器](CONFIG_DOC.md)
- [config servers](CONFIG_DOC.md)
- 如果您想自己编译最新版本，可参考《[代码编译说明](BUILD_DOC.md)》
- [Code compilation instructions](BUILD_DOC.md)


## 下载官方的agent / Download offical agent
[ ![Download](https://api.bintray.com/packages/wu-sheng/skywalking/com.ai.cloud.skywalking-agent/images/download.svg) ](https://bintray.com/wu-sheng/skywalking/com.ai.cloud.skywalking-agent/_latestVersion)

- 通过github-release[下载](https://github.com/wu-sheng/sky-walking/releases)
- 通过[skywalking bintray官网](https://bintray.com/wu-sheng/skywalking/)托管，可使用公网仓库[https://jcenter.bintray.com/](https://jcenter.bintray.com/)下载。
- use public repository  [https://jcenter.bintray.com/](https://jcenter.bintray.com/) to download sdk


## 下载并设置授权文件 / Download auth file
- 注册并登陆过skywalking-webui，创建应用。（一个用户代表一个逻辑集群，一个应用代表一个服务集群。如前后端应用应该设置两个应用，但归属一个用户）
- Sign up and login in skywalking-webui. Create application as needed.
- 下载授权文件，放在在agent jar所在目录中
- download auth file(*.auth), and copy the auth file to directory of the agent jar

## 在运行时环境中设置环境变量 / set environment variables 
```
export SKYWALKING_RUN=true
```
- 设置完成后，SkyWalking将随应用启动运行
- After set env, SkyWalking will be working, when application startup.


## 使用-javaagent 并启动应用程序 / start application with -javaagent
- 为应用程序添加启动参数
```shell
java -jar ...  -javaagent:/..ospath../skywalking-agent-x.x-Final.jar
```
- Tomcat可以使用修改启动文件，配置-javaagent参数
