Chapter 1. Overview of the Cryostat dashboard

The Cryostat Dashboard provides a high-level overview of the target Java Virtual Machines (JVMs) that are connected to Cryostat and helps you to identify and resolve performance issues, review system efficiency, and determine how to optimize application performance.

By using the dashboard, you can view performance data for your JDK Flight Recorder (JFR) recordings and important information and metrics about your target JVMs. The dashboard displays static and dynamic information about your connected JVMs through a variety of dashboard cards, which you can organize and customize in different layouts, according to your requirements.

You access the dashboard directly from the navigation menu of the Cryostat console by clicking Dashboard.
