Application Discovery and Dependency Mapping (ADDM)

What is ADDM?

Application Discovery and Dependency Mapping is a feature to help you discover your applications and have a comprehensive insight into your business infrastructure. Imagine a map that displays all your applications, along with their relationships to other applications as well as to your infrastructure as a whole. Better yet, you have it all in one place. Yes, that should perhaps encapsulate it.
