With the help of the integration, businesses can easily deliver application mapping, dynamic baselining, and code-level diagnostics of a tool that is used in the integration. This is a key integration in a DevOps scenario where application health is monitored and tracked.

OVERVIEW
AppDynamics is an application performance management tool that focusses
on managing the performance and availability of applications across cloud
computing environments as well as inside the data centre.
Kovair AppDynamics Adapter
The Kovair adapter for AppDynamics helps to achieve integration scenario
between AppDynamics and other ALM tools, enabling teams to monitor and
analyse the performance of an application with respect to its impact on an
entire business flow. With the help of the integration, businesses can easily
deliver application mapping, dynamic baselining, and code-level diagnostics
of a tool that is used in the integration. This is a key integration in an DevOps
scenario where application health is monitored and tracked.
Why Integrate AppDynamics with Kovair?
• Automated Code Level Diagnostics
Integration with Kovair AppDynamics provides deep diagnostic
capabilities enables to identify root-cause down to the individual
applications and environments, avoid sifting through log files, and
save valuable developer time.
• Centralized Source of Truth:
The integration can help users to automatically monitor and baseline
every metric in order to achieve a measurement-based environment
that aids test, development, and production process improvement.
Put everyone on the same page with The Virtual War Room, which
gives both internal teams and external partners, access to the same
data, on the same screen.
Eliminate the guesswork with automatic correlation of app,
infrastructure, and business data so that you understand the impact
of every interaction.
• Secured On-Going Investment
Build a compelling business case for wider DevOps adoption across
the enterprise, with real-time business metrics that you can rely on.
Capture and share deep-insights with diagnostic capabilities that
provide detail into the behaviour of apps in pre-prod, test and

production. Create dashboards that showcase the technical or
business benefits of every new release from Kovair ALM. All stake
holders may not need to access AppDynamics to get the
performance data, Kovair platform with the integration will provide a
centralised view.
• Direct Actions
The adapter enables users to take direct actions like
Add/Modify/Delete directly through Omnibus.

An Example of a Use Case Scenario between AppDynamics
and Kovair Platform
With the server infrastructure, traditional monitoring tools are of surface level metrics value. It is not just
enough to know infrastructure metrics. The AppDynamics platform with Kovair Integration gives you
visibility into your business transactions — and all of the associated downstream activities — to give you
the most relevant, business-performance view of your environment.
To understand how the Kovair AppDynamics adapter works, let us consider an integration scenario
between tools AppDynamics and Kovair Platform.
With the help of Kovair Omnibus and Kovair adapters, the tools are integrated with each other thereby
creating an integrated scenario. Below is a step-by-step scenario explaining how the tools work in the
integrated scenario.
The Integration helps reduce the time in searching for specific event/incident data and consolidate tickets
by following this runtime flow:
1. AppDynamics is configured with staging as well as with production Server.

4. Kovair AppDynamics Integration Datasheet

2. In DevOps using Kovair platform builds can be deployed using Kovair Jenkins adapter in
Staging as well as in Production
3. Once the application is Staging or in Production AppDynamics can capture regular monitoring
data and send to Kovair platform using the integration.
4. In Kovair one can create an alert panel for the IT manager as well as the product owner. These
stake holders can regularly monitor the application and environment performance.
5. Over the period time these data can be used to create meaning reports show casing
application performance
6. Using Kovair REST API these AppDynamics log data can extracted from Kovair into a BI tool
for analysis over the period of a year or more.
