分布式应用监控：SkyWalking 快速接入实践

分布式应用，会存在各种问题。而要解决这些难题，除了要应用自己做一些监控埋点外，还应该有一些外围的系统进行主动探测，主动发现。

APM工具就是干这活的，SkyWalking 是国人开源的一款优秀的APM应用，已成为apache的顶级项目。

今天我们就来实践下 SkyWalking 下吧。

实践目标： 达到监控现有的几个系统，清楚各调用关系，可以找到出性能问题点。

实践步骤：

1. SkyWalking 服务端安装运行；

2. 应用端的接入；

3. 后台查看效果；

4. 分析排查问题；

5. 深入了解（如有心情）；

6. SkyWalking 服务端安装

下载应用包:

# 主下载页
 http://skywalking.apache.org/downloads/
 # 点开具体下载地址后进行下载，如：
 wget http://mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/apache/skywalking/6.5.0/apache-skywalking-apm-6.5.0.tar.gz

解压安装包:

 tar -xzvf apache-skywalking-apm-6.5.0.tar.gz

使用默认配置端口，默认存储方式 h3, 直接启动服务：

  ./bin/startup.sh

好产品就是这么简单！

现在服务端就启起来了，可以打开后台地址查看(默认是8080端口): http://localhost:8080 界面如下：

当然，上面是已存在应用的页面。现在你是看不到任何应用的，因为你还没有接入嘛。

2. 应用端的接入

我们只以java应用接入方式实践。

直接使用 javaagent 进行启动即可：

java -javaagent:/root/skywalking/agent/skywalking-agent.jar -Dskywalking.agent.service_name=app1 -Dskywalking.collector.backend_service=localhost:11800 -jar myapp.jar

参数说明：

# 参数解释
 skywalking.agent.service_name: 本应用在skywalking中的名称
 skywalking.collector.backend_service: skywalking 服务端地址，grpc上报地址，默认端口是 11800
 # 上面两个参数也可以使用另外的表现形式
 SW_AGENT_COLLECTOR_BACKEND_SERVICES: 与 skywalking.collector.backend_service 含义相同
 SW_AGENT_NAME: 与 skywalking.agent.service_name 含义相同

随便访问几个接口或页面，使监控抓取到数据。

再回管理页面，已经看到有节点了。截图如上。

现在我们还可以查看各应用之间的关系了!

关系清晰吧！一目了然，代码再复杂也不怕了。

我们还可以追踪具体链路：

只要知道问题发生的时间点，即可以很快定位到发生问题的接口、系统，快速解决。

3. SkyWalking 配置文件

如上，我们并没有改任何配置文件，就让系统跑起来了。幸运的同时，我们应该要知道更多！至少配置得知道。

config/application.yml : 收集器服务端配置

webapp/webapp.yml : 配置 Web 的端口及获取数据的 OAP(Collector)的IP和端口

agent/config/agent.config : 配置 Agent 信息，如 Skywalking OAP(Collector)的地址和名称

下面是 skywalking 的默认配置，我们可以不用更改就能跑起来一个样例！更改以生产化配置！

4. SkyWalking 架构

来自官网的图片，感受一下！无须细说，大概原理就是： 针对各种不同客户端实现不同的指标采集，统一通过grpc/http发送到apm服务端，然后经过分析引擎后存储到es/h3/mysql等等存储系统，最后由前端通过查询引擎进行展现。

5. 可以用来干啥

发现系统耗时或者说瓶颈在哪里。

发现各系统之间的调用关系。

监控服务异常。

排查系统故障。
