Chapter 7. Using the Management Interfaces
In this chapter, we will describe the management tools available with WildFly, which can be used to control your application server instances.
WildFly provides several administration channels. One of them is the CLI, which contains many unique features that make it convenient for daily system administration and for monitoring application server resources.
The management tools also include a web admin console that offers an elegant view of the application server subsystems, allowing you to perform administrative tasks in a simple way.
Within this chapter, we will describe the following management tools:
- The command-line interface (CLI)

We will also cover the following topics:
- Creating and modifying datasources
