12. What are the costs for JMX Monitoring Agent?
Included in Nodinite license - No additional per-JVM licensing fees. Single Nodinite license covers:
- Unlimited JVMs monitored (monitor 10 JVMs, 100 JVMs, or 1,000 JVMs, same price)
- Unlimited JMX API Gateways (deploy Gateways in multiple regions, data centers, no per-Gateway fees)
- All garbage collector types (G1, CMS, Parallel, ZGC, Shenandoah - all supported, no additional cost)
- All Alarm Plugins (email, Slack, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty, SMS - no per-integration fees)
- Historical data retention (12-24 months heap/GC/thread trends, included in base license)
Cost comparison vs alternatives:
- New Relic APM: $99-$199/host/month (Java agent per JVM) × 40 JVMs = $47,520-$95,520/year
- AppDynamics: $75-$150/Java agent/month × 40 JVMs = $36,000-$72,000/year
- Dynatrace: $69/host/month × 40 JVMs = $33,120/year
- Manual monitoring (JConsole/VisualVM): 45 min/day × $75/hour × 260 days = $14,625/year labor cost (vs Nodinite automated, zero ongoing labor)
Nodinite ROI example (40 JVMs: 8 Boomi Atoms + 32 microservices):
- Cost avoidance: $125K Boomi outage prevented + $14,625/year manual monitoring eliminated + $250K GC storm prevented + $1.2M capacity planning revenue protected = $1,589,625 Year 1 value
- Nodinite investment: ~$30K-$50K Nodinite license (varies by company size, contact sales for pricing)
- ROI: 31-53× Year 1 return on investment
Additional value: Single Nodinite license covers JMX monitoring + [Apache Camel][], [Database][], [Windows Server][], [IBM Integration Bus][], [BPM][], and 50+ other agents (unified monitoring platform, not JVM-only).
