Hi Felipe,
If you want to access CPU, Memory and Disk usage, you could have a look at this
library:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.fusesource</groupId>
<artifactId>sigar</artifactId>
<version>1.6.4</version>
</dependency>
I am using this in another project and it's working nicely. I'm using is in a
Scala Akka Actor, but it shouldn't be difficult to see how to use it in Java:
https://github.com/chrisdutz/RAPIRO/blob/master/server/telemetry/src/main/scala/de/codecentric/iot/rapiro/telemetry/actors/TelemetryActor.scala
... but thinking about it ... I think it would be a great option to add a
Edgent Source providing such data.
Because with this, you could eventually create data-streams that adapt to the
load on the Edge device ...
It shouldn't be hard to implement ... and as I posted in my reply on the other
thread, I don't think Edgent currently has something like that. I just did a
quick full-text-search and couldn't find anything?
Feel tempted to implement such a connector? We're currently trying to
re-initiate the committer-base of Edgent and contributions like this would be
highly valued :-)

Hi,
On the Edgent documentations is mentioned:
"You can send data from an Edgent application to your back-end system when
you need to perform analysis that cannot be performed on the edge device,
such as:
Running a complex analytic algorithm that requires more resources, such as
CPU or memory, than are available on the edge device." (
https://edgent.apache.org/docs/overview)
I understood that the Edgent daemon on the device is constantly monitoring
its properties (CPU and memory) and this daemon decides to not perform the
analytics on the RPi when it has lack of resource but perform on a layer
above. Is it right?
How can I implement a program using Edgent to send this type of metadata to
a layer above? Let's say I want to sent metadata regarding CPU, memory and
storage usage from the RPi to an IoT gateway.
Thanks,
Felipe
