-
- ## Introduction
-
- As distributed systems become increasingly popular, the reliability between services is becoming more important than ever before.
- Sentinel takes "flow" as breakthrough point, and works on multiple fields including **flow control**,
- **traffic shaping**, **circuit breaking** and **system adaptive protection**, to guarantee reliability and resilience for microservices.
-
- Sentinel has the following features:
-
- - **Rich applicable scenarios**: Sentinel has been wildly used in Alibaba, and has covered almost all the core-scenarios in Double-11 (11.11) Shopping Festivals in the past 10 years, such as “Second Kill” which needs to limit burst flow traffic to meet the system capacity, message peak clipping and valley fills, circuit breaking for unreliable downstream services, cluster flow control, etc.
- - **Real-time monitoring**: Sentinel also provides real-time monitoring ability. You can see the runtime information of a single machine in real-time, and the aggregated runtime info of a cluster with less than 500 nodes.
- - **Widespread open-source ecosystem**: Sentinel provides out-of-box integrations with commonly-used frameworks and libraries such as Spring Cloud, Dubbo and gRPC. You can easily use Sentinel by simply add the adapter dependency to your services.
- - **Polyglot support**: Sentinel has provided native support for Java, [Go](https://github.com/alibaba/sentinel-golang) and [C++](https://github.com/alibaba/sentinel-cpp).
- - **Various SPI extensions**: Sentinel provides easy-to-use SPI extension interfaces that allow you to quickly customize your logic, for example, custom rule management, adapting data sources, and so on.

-
- ## Ecosystem Landscape
-
- 
-
- ## Quick Start
-
- Below is a simple demo that guides new users to use Sentinel in just 3 steps. It also shows how to monitor this demo using the dashboard.
-
- ### 1. Add Dependency
-
- **Note:** Sentinel requires JDK 1.8 or later.
-
- If you're using Maven, just add the following dependency in `pom.xml`.
-
- ```xml
- <!-- replace here with the latest version -->
- <dependency>
- <groupId>com.alibaba.csp</groupId>
- <artifactId>sentinel-core</artifactId>
- <version>1.8.1</version>
- </dependency>
- ```
-
- If not, you can download JAR in [Maven Center Repository](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.alibaba.csp/sentinel-core).
-
- ### 2. Define Resource
-
- Wrap your code snippet via Sentinel API: `SphU.entry(resourceName)`.
- In below example, it is `System.out.println("hello world");`:
-
- ```java
- try (Entry entry = SphU.entry("HelloWorld")) {
- // Your business logic here.
- System.out.println("hello world");
- } catch (BlockException e) {
- // Handle rejected request.
- e.printStackTrace();
- }
- // try-with-resources auto exit
- ```
-
- So far the code modification is done. We've also provided [annotation support module](https://github.com/alibaba/Sentinel/blob/master/sentinel-extension/sentinel-annotation-aspectj/README.md) to define resource easier.
-
- ### 3. Define Rules
-
- If we want to limit the access times of the resource, we can **set rules to the resource**.
- The following code defines a rule that limits access to the resource to 20 times per second at the maximum.
-
- ```java
- List<FlowRule> rules = new ArrayList<>();
- FlowRule rule = new FlowRule();
- rule.setResource("HelloWorld");
- // set limit qps to 20
- rule.setCount(20);
- rule.setGrade(RuleConstant.FLOW_GRADE_QPS);
- rules.add(rule);
- FlowRuleManager.loadRules(rules);
- ```
-
- For more information, please refer to [How To Use](https://github.com/alibaba/Sentinel/wiki/How-to-Use).
-
- ### 4. Check the Result
-
- After running the demo for a while, you can see the following records in `~/logs/csp/${appName}-metrics.log.{date}` (When using the default `DateFileLogHandler`).
-
- ```
- |--timestamp-|------date time----|-resource-|p |block|s |e|rt |occupied
- 1529998904000|2018-06-26 15:41:44|HelloWorld|20|0 |20|0|0 |0
- 1529998905000|2018-06-26 15:41:45|HelloWorld|20|5579 |20|0|728 |0
- 1529998906000|2018-06-26 15:41:46|HelloWorld|20|15698|20|0|0 |0
- 1529998907000|2018-06-26 15:41:47|HelloWorld|20|19262|20|0|0 |0
- 1529998908000|2018-06-26 15:41:48|HelloWorld|20|19502|20|0|0 |0
- 1529998909000|2018-06-26 15:41:49|HelloWorld|20|18386|20|0|0 |0
-
- p stands for incoming request, block for blocked by rules, s for success handled by Sentinel, e for exception count, rt for average response time (ms), occupied stands for occupiedPassQps since 1.5.0 which enable us booking more than 1 shot when entering.
- ```
-
- This shows that the demo can print "hello world" 20 times per second.
-
- More examples and information can be found in the [How To Use](https://github.com/alibaba/Sentinel/wiki/How-to-Use) section.
-
- The working principles of Sentinel can be found in [How it works](https://github.com/alibaba/Sentinel/wiki/How-it-works) section.
-

-
- ### 5. Start Dashboard
-
- > Note: Java 8 is required for building or running the dashboard.
-
- Sentinel also provides a simple dashboard application, on which you can monitor the clients and configure the rules in real time.
-
-
