• Employed Jvisualvm for more in depth monitoring of the heap, garbage collection, cpu utilization, and thread utilization of java programs
• Created and executed scripts with Jmeter and Loadrunner to perform Load tests on web applications
• Worked with HP Application Lifecycle Management to acquire the response times for specific use cases
• Utilized Foglight to take traces of problem transactions and determine what method in the call tree was the issue
• Created scripts in Powershell to determine whether a server could still send network traffic to all the servers that it was intended to be able to communicate with
• Utilized AppDynamics to monitor the performance and availability of an application
• Configured Dynatrace with the AWS EC2 to monitor the cpu, memory, and network utilization
