"What's needed is for the application to be able to request whatever system information it wants from the system monitoring tool - then it can integrate that with what it knows about itself and decide appropriately what to do"
"An LMAX Disruptor is a type of queue: a ring with multiple producers and consumers. Each producer and consumer has a sequence counter to indicate which slot in the buffer it's currently working on, all can read all counters. Consumers can only process slots lower than all dependent consumers have finished working on - but they can work concurrently or batchwise on all slots up to there. Each producer/consumer can only write to its own unique data portion (field) within the buffer slot - so there is no race condition; a consumer dependent on a field being written will wait until that consumer has increased it's counter beyond the slot before accessing the field. "
