Multicloud Deployment Support
The agent supports deployment in the following multi-cloud environments:
Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2)
Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS)
Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS)
Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)
IIB Node Types
The agent can continue business transactions detected upstream at these node types:
SOAPInput
HTTPInput
JMSInput
MQInput
The agent can detect and tag exit calls for downstream correlation at these node types:
SOAPRequest
HTTPRequest
JMSOutput, JMSReply
MQOutput, MQReply
For MQ, we use the MQRFH2 message header to provide correlation.Any applications consuming MQ messages from IIB with the IIB agent must support the MQRFH2 header.
The agent can detect database backend calls for these node types:
DatabaseRetrieve
DatabaseRoute
All nodes are represented within Business Transactions as Threads. You can view the per node timings in the tree view of the Business Transaction dashboard and in the transaction snapshots.
