Hyperic SIGAR API

SIGAR (System Information Gatherer and Reporter) is a cross-platform, cross-language library and command-line tool for accessing operating system and hardware information in C, Java, Perl and C#.

Hyperic developed SIGAR to overcome the lack of portable access to low-level hardware and operating system metrics in the Java platform. It's now a key component of the Hyperic HQ management platform to provide auto-inventory, monitoring, login tracking and control.

SIGAR includes support for Linux, FreeBSD, Windows, Solaris, AIX, HP-UX and Mac OSX across a variety of versions and architectures. Users of the SIGAR API are given portable access to inventory and monitoring data including:

SIGAR offers both source code and binary distributions including native libraries for all supported platforms, examples and documentation.
