SIG is a set of utilities to inspect and collect information about the (native) compute platform and operating system.
SIG data collection methods are written with the Linux operating system in mind but with a little care and feeding may be readily adopted to also support OSX (trivial) and Windows (less easy, but not difficult).
SIG does not make or use JNA calls. Instead SIG reads files from the /proc
and /sys file systems and executes then parses the output of various common
system commands such as ps (process info), df (disk info) and ss (socket info).
SIG does not collect network IP configurations, which are already available within
Java. Instead SIG collects interface status and statistics to supplement the
existing information available in java.util.NetworkInterface.

If you require a non-linux SI library consider one of the following.
- oshi Native Operating System and Hardware Information
- sigar System Information Gatherer And Reporter
Note however that these both require installation of a JNI library agent on your sytem.
