The @Component annotation indicates that this class is eligible to be a Spring bean when context:component-scan runs. The @ManagedResource annotation indicates that the bean can be exported as a JMX MBean. It's objectName attribute is optional, but can be used to specify a specific name for the MBean. In this case it will be exposed under the 'org.springbyexample.jmx' directory with the name 'ServerManager'. By default it would have been exposed under the directory 'org.springbyexample.jmx' and subdirectory 'serverManagerImpl' with the name 'ServerManagerImpl'.

The @ManagedAttribute can expose a getter or setter by annotating the method. A method that takes multiple values can be exposed using @ManagedOperation along with @ManagedOperationParameters and @ManagedOperationParameter to parameters the operation can take.
