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）；

 

1. 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 h2, 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/h2/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。

 

6. 其他存储系统接入

　　h2只是一个内存存储系统，其目的是为了让你能够快速验证快速响应，它还没有强大到足以支撑线上系统运行。

　　所以，线上一定得选用某个更可靠存储。

　　一般地，ES会是个不错的选择，一来它以搜索速度著称而这正好符合后台查询的需求，二来es是分布式存储，可以避免一定的大数据量问题。

　　mysql: 一般地对普通开发同学友好，且单机mysql容易搭建。

　　tidb: 与mysql协议完全兼容，分布式存储。

　　配置方法如demo所示。。。
