AppDynamics

Learn how to connect AppDynamics to ZigiOps. Supported versions, prerequisites, authentication details, and connected system configuration.

What is AppDynamics integration in ZigiOps?

AppDynamics is an application performance monitoring (APM) platform that provides visibility into application health, performance metrics, topology, and events.

ZigiOps enables secure, agentless integrations between AppDynamics and ITSM, monitoring, and analytics platforms. Using ZigiOps, AppDynamics metrics, events, topology data, and violations can be synchronized with external systems to support monitoring-driven workflows and automated incident management.

With ZigiOps, AppDynamics can:

• Send application and node metrics to monitoring platforms

• Forward events and violations to ITSM systems

• Enrich topology data in downstream tools

• Participate in end-to-end observability workflows without custom scripting

Which AppDynamics versions are supported?

Using a supported version is mandatory.

Product	Supported Deployment Types	Supported Versions
AppDynamics (LITE, PRO)	Cloud, Server	4.2 (or newer) 4.5 (or newer) for EUM data

Are there any environmental prerequisites for AppDynamics?

There are no environmental prerequisites for this product.

Before configuring AppDynamics, always confirm the prerequisites of the corresponding integration template, as some templates may have system-specific requirements.

How do I connect AppDynamics to ZigiOps?

Review the configuration

Review the configuration.

4

Save

Click Save to store the connected system.

Once saved, AppDynamics becomes available for use in ZigiOps integration templates.

What are the most common AppDynamics integration use cases?

Use case 1: Forwarding application metrics to monitoring platforms

ZigiOps can synchronize AppDynamics application, node, and transaction metrics with monitoring systems such as OBM or vROps. This enables unified visibility across application and infrastructure monitoring tools.

Use case 2: Sending AppDynamics events and violations to ITSM systems

When AppDynamics detects performance violations or critical events, ZigiOps can forward them to ITSM platforms as events or incidents. This allows operations teams to react quickly to application issues using established ITSM workflows.

Use case 3: Topology enrichment and observability workflows

AppDynamics topology data can be synchronized to external systems using ZigiOps, enriching monitoring and analytics platforms with application-level context and relationships.

What integration templates are available for AppDynamics?

ZigiOps provides a variety of prebuilt integration templates for AppDynamics, organized by target system and data type.
