Geode uses Java MBeans, specifically MXBeans, to expose management controls and monitoring features.

To provide cluster level management and monitoring, Geode uses a federated Open MBean strategy. The Java classes interact with a single MBeanServer that aggregates MBeans from other local and remote members. This strategy provides a consolidated, single-agent view of the distributed system.

The implementation is based on JMX  (industry-standard and friendly to generic JMX clients), this allows use of any JMX compliant tools (third party or custom build) to manage and monitor Geode cluster. For example, JConsole.
