jvm-mon is a console-based tool for monitoring JVM server applications from the terminal. Rewritten in Go as a single executable, it attaches a bundled Java agent to running JVM processes to display CPU, GC load, heap usage, and top threads.

Use cases

• monitor jvm processes over ssh
• check heap usage of a java server from terminal
• see which jvm threads use the most cpu
• view gc load on a running java application
• list running jvm processes on a server
• kill a stuck jvm process from the console

When to choose

• you ssh into servers and want a quick terminal view of JVM health
• you don't have a JDK installed on the target machine
• you prefer a lightweight single-binary alternative to full APM tools

When to avoid

• you need historical metrics, dashboards, or alerting
• you monitor non-JVM runtimes
• you need remote monitoring without SSH access to the host
