Visualize application components and their dependencies

When it comes to dealing with multitude of applications in a business infrastructure, having a clear understanding of individual resource components and their dependencies is crucial for DevOps admins to know, especially in cases of incident troubleshooting and resolution. With the help of application discovery and dependency mapping (ADDM) feature in Applications Manager, you can obtain a holistic view on how resources are connected to each other in an application infrastructure within a single window. It discovers applications running on various servers in your infrastructure and maps the ones that are connected/dependent between them, in the form of network maps, facilitating you to instantly detect resources that are functioning abnormally during performance disruptions. Newly-discovered applications and resources will be automatically added to the maps based on the discovery schedule configured.
