Benefits

• Accelerate application troubleshooting
• Ensure successful migration to cloud computing
• Reduce risk associated with server virtualization and data center consolidation
• Provide better transparency to business unit stakeholders about the application infrastructure
• Enhance configuration and change management

Use AppMapper Xpert to:

• Identify application and infrastructure components that are required to deliver a specific application
• Identify the applications that depend on a particular server or network device before making configuration changes to that element
• Understand the service impact of infrastructure events or outages
• Identify associated components when planning to migrate an application to a cloud computing environment
• Determine application dependencies before virtualizing or consolidating servers
• Provide detailed, accurate information to business unit stakeholders about the complete application environment, including enabling components of the underlying infrastructure
  

Key AppMapper Xpert Features

• Starting with a single entry point, build out a detailed run-time map of an application’s  dependencies
• Combine network flow information with application details on processes, classes, components, and databases
• Automatically determine relationships between application and infrastructure components for complex, multi-tier applications
• Visualize application dependencies through elegant, intuitive GUI
• Simplify solution implementation and minimize on-going costs through Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) delivery model
  

Compare AppMapper Xpert to other solutions

• AppMapper Xpert provides a run-time model of application dependencies uniquely suited for operational workflows, unlike CMDB-based solutions that focus on static IT dependency models.
• AppMapper Xpert automatically determines the dependency map for all kinds of applications, including “home grown” ones. Other solutions commonly rely on pre-determined architecture models for popular third-party applications, or manual input to define dependencies.
• AppMapper is uniquely suited to dynamic operating environments, such as virtualized servers and SOA applications, because it produces an accurate run-time model of the application at the time of execution. Static models cannot achieve the same level of accuracy.
• The SaaS delivery model minimizes up-front costs and accelerates benefits.
  

Integrations

• Discover inter-server relationships, leveraging AppResponse Xpert's visibility into network traffic.
• Understand server roles within the architecture by adding detailed data from AppInternals Xpert.
• Scan for servers and clients using a broad, agentless approach with AppSensor Xpert.

"AppMapper Xpert is awesome. Mapping applications in NetQoS is a completely manual process, and even then we do not see the mapping between hosts."
