Welcome to Application Insights Java SDK 2.1.0! We have added support for heartbeats and made performance optimizations in the SDK's initialization code. A couple of other issues have also been fixed. See details below:
Enhancements:
- Introduced a Heartbeat feature, which sends periodic messages with basic information about application and runtime to Application Insights.
- Performance improvements during initialization.
Bug Fixes:
- Fixed an issue whereby the SDK could not resolve instrumentation keys if a proxy was specified in the JVM (via http.proxyHost). The fix enables proper support for system properties in the instrumentation key resolver component.
- Fix #647 - If a performance counter cannot be computed, it will not report a placeholder value (-1). Instead, it does not report any value.
