Cloud Application Dependency Mapping

info

Set up Application Groups by defining a Starting Point. See the Application Groups Calculation Rules page for more details.

You can map connections between your on-prem and AWS databases. Cloud Application Dependency Mapping can help customers with hybrid environments to better understand their infrastructure, improve troubleshooting, ease migration frustrations, and optimize resource utilization, ultimately leading to better performance and cost savings.

Currently, we support the following AWS Databases: RDS, DynamoDB and Redshift

How to Configure

After you've discovered your on-prem and cloud databases, navigate to Resources > Databases > Cloud Databases.

Select the database you would like to use as your starting point. Once you've opened the database, you will see the information we have discovered for that database (image 1).
