Why integrate test, trace, log and performance tools via Hyades?
Hyades is an Eclipse Tools Sub-project providing an infrastructure for integrating test, trace, log and performance tools at both the user interface and the data level. Hyades applies across the lifecycle from development through test and into production and is also applicable to systems integration in environments where no source code is present. Hyades provides a range of tools and tool components which operate inside that infrastructure, and extension points where vendors can add higher-value commercial plug-ins from profiling, testing, through log analysis, to systems performance and autonomic management. This talk explains the benefit that the unprecedented level of tools integration provides to the user of the tool, to the tools vendor seeking to provide high-value innovative tooling to customers, and to the vendor or integrator of the system to which the tools interface.
