-A few examples of successful LTTng users :
-
-<ul>
-<li> Google are deploying LTTng on their servers. They want to use it to
- monitor their production servers (with flight recorder mode tracing)
- and to help them solve hard to reproduce problems. They have had
- success with such tracing approach to fix "rare disk delay" issues and
- VM-related issues presented in this article :
-<ul>
- <li> <a href="http://ltt.polymtl.ca/papers/bligh-Reprint.pdf">Linux Kernel
-Debugging on Google-sized clusters at Ottawa Linux
- Symposium 2007</a>
-</ul>
-<li> IBM Research have had problems with Commercial Scale-out applications,
- which are being an increasing trend to split large server workloads.
- They used LTTng successfully to solve a distributed filesystem-related
- issue. It's presented in the same paper above.
-
-<li> Autodesk, in the development of their next-generation of Linux
- audio/video edition applications, used LTTng extensively to solve
- soft real-time issues they had. Also presented in the same paper.
-
-<li> Wind River included LTTng in their Linux distribution so their
- clients, already familiar to Wind River own tracing solution in
- VxWorks, car have the same kind of feature they have relied on for a
- long time.
-
-<li> Montavista have integrated LTTng in their distribution for the same
- reasons. It's used by Sony amongst others.
-
-<li> SuSE are currently integrating LTTng in their next SLES distribution,
- because their clients asking for solutions which supports a kernel
- closer to real-time need such tools to debug their problems.
-
-<li> A project between Ericsson, the Canadian Defense, NSERC and various
- universities is just starting. It aims at monitoring and debugging
- multi-core systems and provide automated and help user system behavior
- analysis.
-
-<li> Siemens have been using LTTng internally for quite some time now.
