The AppDynamics Java Agent is one type of bytecode injection (BCI) agent. 

So, what does it do with the java application?

Actually from what I have seen it intercept the http request and modify it by adding the header for local proxy authentication.

@Ryan.Paredez , Actually, I would like to know whether Java agent intercept on every request to do the proxy request and transfer to AppDynamic server or not? 

I have a problem with proxy server authentication recently. because my services have higher TPS.
