This has be a real blind spot in the node community since inception. It's great to see a company focused on delivering a node runtime that is instrumented in a way that provides large node deployments with the necessary metrics/insights needed for node at scale.
Would be great if they posted some more info on whether or not their instrumentation comes with a cost to performance. Looks like you can enable/disable profiling at runtime without restarting too, which is huge!
> Node.js applications can be debugged and profiled live, without the need to restart, and therefore potentially miss critical state that led to the fault.
- joe-mccann 11y agoThanks brryant! We've been laser focused on community first, but that community _includes_ the enterprise. You can quite literally click a button to profile you app in realtime...no code modification required. https://cloudup.com/cNdDqLq_1sM https://cloudup.com/cNdDqLq_1sM

- joe-mccann 11y agoYeah sorry wrong link. https://cloudup.com/cNdDqLq_1sM https://cloudup.com/cNdDqLq_1sM
- vkjv 11y agoIs there a vagrant or docker install for simple developer experimentation?
- ihsw 11y agoIt would seem there is. http://hub.docker.com/r/nodesource/jessie http://hub.docker.com/r/nodesource/jessie These guys appear to be on the ball, usually a cursory investigation would lead me nowhere but they've got a healthy presence in all the right places. The linked DockerHub repository does point to a page with an example Dockerfile using node-0.12, but they do have tags for 4.0 and 4.1. Fascinating.
- joe-mccann 11y agothanks! we don't sleep...that much ;)
- goldfeld 11y agoTo me that means plenty of sleeper bugs ;)
- joe-mccann 11y agoDocker definitely on our roadmap; vagrant in consideration. It's a straightforward install for the runtime now. node app.js nsolid app.js same thing
- hunterloftis 11y agoHi Bryant! I agree, this is something that the node ecosystem really needed. Strongloop was working on something similar; we'll see how that goes with IBM. I'm really excited to see something that looks viable actually shipping.
