XRebel 2021.1.0

In addition to JRebel 2021.1.0, we have a new update to XRebel, our distributed tracing tool. XRebel 2021.1.0 adds exciting usability functions and support for Java 15.

Microservices Updates

XRebel 2021.1.0 now supports the ability to monitor your Vert.x applications. This means that any development team that is actively working with Vert.x in their environments can now use XRebel freely being able to see how their application communicates within the microservices used. Vert.x(vertx.io) is a reactive application framework that is run on a Java Virtual Machine.

Usability Improvements

XRebel 2021.1.0 adds an option to open XRebel standalone through the browser. You can now open up your standalone view for XRebel through the XRebel toolbar. This makes it easier for developers working in web services like REST API or SOAP the ability to quickly view the standalone view from the toolbar. We also updated the feedback to be displayed on the bottom right hand of the browser—so feel free to message us with your feedback on XRebel.

Java Technologies Support

XRebel has also added support for Java 15, keeping support for the latest version of Java available. View your application’s performance for the latest features in Java 15, including Records, Text Blocks, Hidden Classes, and the Sealed Classes preview feature.

XRebel also implemented support for Netty HTTP, which is commonly used for a number of different microservice frameworks and was highly requested amongst potential XRebel users.
