Show flow between applications

We have several applications configure with App Dynamics.  The application I'm interested in has several .net web frontends.  These not only get incoming requests, but also make http request to other servers in other application.  However, I don't see any of that on the flow map.

If I look at the flow map for some of our application with java based servers, those at least show the requests other http servers.  Though still no flow coming from the outside applications.

Is it possible to see all this?


Thanks,

Mark

Hi Mark,

While Dot.Net team got chance to address queries specific to .net flow view, I would like to clarify current product functionality with give sample flow view:

Say: We have component/tier A (it can have .net agents Or completly java agents under this tier with agent configured) , where it is receiving calls from another Service/Tier B (under which you IIS/JVMs with apps deployed) but no agents configured for tier B then you will not see the incoming calls on flow view such as follows:

B -> HTTP -> A   , But if there are any HTTP/exit backend calls made from jvm/IIS for agents configured under Tier/Service A then you will see as follows:

A -> HTTP/exit backend calls 

And if you have another Service/Tier C with agents configured where apps under Tier/Service A (assuming both Tier A and C are under same application-name in controller UI associated) and if BT under Tier A apps making calls to Tier C then the flow view will be :

A -> HTTP/exit calls -> C

refer doc : https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO39/Logical+Model  and https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO39/Application+Dashboard

Let us know if that information helps.

Regards,

Arun
