We are very happy to release our very first version of Hawkular !
This is an important milestone for us, one of many more to come.

What you can already do with this release:

- Self register & login (each user has his own resources to monitor)

endif::[]

- Add URLs to monitor. Hawkular will tell you if those URLs are accessible and what was the response time from the server, it keeps history of this data and you can browse the graphs to see the data at a particular time.

endif::[]

- Be alerted by Email when certain thresholds are met with dampening to avoid false alerts

endif::[]

- Add Wildfly servers to monitor (for the moment you will need to instrument your server manually following http://www.hawkular.org/docs/user/getting-started.html#_install_a_wildfly_monitoring_agent[those instructions] and Hawkular user interface will tell you if they are up or down).

There is a lot more behind the scenes:

- Hawkular Metrics is a sub-project that allows you to store timeseries over a long period of time, this is based on the work done with the RHQ project and uses Cassandra in the back
- Hawkular Alerts is a component used by Hawkular to manage alerts, this is extremely configurable through a rules based engine
- The Wildfly agent expose a lot of metrics from Wildfly but also feed the inventory with deployments, datasources...

We plan to do a lot more Alpha releases with more and more features, the next Alpha is planned for July 1st, and http://localhost:8080/docs/dev/development.html[you can help us] :)
