Application Instrumentation Using Performance Counters
Understand how and why to add custom performance counter instrumentation to your managed and native Windows applications.
What you'll learn
Many applications are black holes - information is processed but not broadcast. It can be difficult to monitor the state of these applications without having the proper instrumentation channels in place. Performance counters offer an effective instrumentation strategy that combines the tractability of numbers with the liberty of automation frameworks. In this course, you will learn what counter types are available to your application, how the counters are managed by the operating system, and how to create custom performance counters in both native and managed code.
