Question regarding javascript agent

CommunityUser

My organization is trying to implement javascript agent.

i have two questions:

1. We have some applications that have apache as a reverse proxy. for those servers we are trying to use the mod_substitute module to auto inject the adrum.js. what is the recommendation in terms of hosting the adrum.js file. Since all of the apache servers are acting as a reverse proxy server, we cannot host any files on the apache server.

2. for Servers that don't have apache webserver, what is your recommendations in terms of autoinjecting the adrum.js file.

3. does apache mod_substitute work for ember applications as well?

Hi Selee,

1. We have some applications that have apache as a reverse proxy. For those servers, we are trying to use the mod_substitute module to auto inject the adrum.js. what is the recommendation in terms of hosting the adrum.js file? Since all of the apache servers are acting as a reverse proxy server, we cannot host any files on the apache server.

- You can pull our latest agent from https://cdn.appdynamics.com/adrum/adrum-latest.js if the server does not connect to the internet you will have to host it on the application server or your private CDN.

2. for Servers that don't have apache webserver, what is your recommendations in terms of autoinjecting the adrum.js file. 
- If your application is using jasper compiled JSPs then I will suggest using automatic injection

else, manual injection is the way to go.

3. does apache mod_substitute work for ember applications as well?

- The injection should work but since there is no out of the box support for it. You will need to write additional code to use Javascript API to report the metrics back to EUM collector.
