Application performance monitoring

FAQ's

• Is there a difference between having OpManager Plus with APM add-on deployment and having OpManager and Applications Manager standalone deployments separately? OpManager Plus is an integrated solution that streamlines the process of IT operations management thereby eliminating the need for multiple monitoring tools. This holistic tool provides greater visibility across your IT infrastructure by combining the network and application performance monitoring capabilities within a single console.
  If you go with OpManager Plus with APM add-on, then managing OpManager and Applications Manager standalone deployments will not needed.
• What is the function of the APM Insight? Is it the agent installed into the server where you have your applications hosted? APM Insight gives you visibility into the way your applications behave for your end users. You can get comprehensive end-to-end transaction awareness across your entire infrastructure, enabling you to isolate performance issues and resolve them quickly without degrading the performance of your applications. Yes, application-specific agents are deployed into the servers where your applications will be hosted. https://www.manageengine.com/products/applications_manager/help/apminsight-working.html
• What do you classify as an instance? Is it the number of applications being monitored by APM Insight? Apart from the host server that's hosting the application, servers on which the application is running is called as instance in APM Insight.

• What version of Applications Manager supports the automated setup of APM Insight? The automated setup of APM Insight is supported from Applications Manager v172100 onwards.
• Does APM and Netflow analysis (Application tab) monitor in the same manner? APM and Netflow Analysis are distinct monitoring approaches. APM injects custom instrumentation code into your web application to track transactions and code behavior, providing granular insights. Conversely, Netflow Analysis focuses on network traffic patterns, collecting aggregated data from network devices to offer a broader view of network health and potential bottlenecks. While both can be used for application monitoring, APM offers detailed application-specific data, while Netflow Analysis provides network-level insights. Combining both can offer a comprehensive understanding of application performance by correlating application metrics with network conditions.
