AppDynamics

What differentiates AppDynamics from other similar products?

We have several nodes operating for various micro-services as part of a caching solution we designed using Hazelcast Distributed Cache. As each microservice has a unique tier name, we are attempting to track the utilization of all business transactions to determine how long it takes to call out a certain API endpoint. We watch as the transaction proceeds between several parts. Additionally, we have established special health guidelines so that the support staff may make a choice.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

An excellent solution for monitoring infrastructure, including servers, databases, API endpoints, and business activities, is AppDynamics. It's really simple to set up AppDynamics; all we have to do is install a client on the infrastructure we want to monitor. The client can then be smoothly integrated with the application, such as spring boot, by just specifying the tier. The dashboard then displays right away. Even better is being able to see how the request is being distributed throughout the many micro-services. We can set up various alerts and exceptions and set up actions when the triggers are struck, from sending messages.
