The integration between Splunk AppDynamics SaaS and Splunk Platform provides a unified observability experience for the performance of your applications. You can integrate Cisco AppDynamics SaaS with Splunk Cloud Platform or Splunk Enterprise. With this integration, you can troubleshoot issues across your on-premises, hybrid, and multiple cloud environments without the need to sprawl multiple monitoring tools.

Benefits

The unified observability experience between Splunk AppDynamics SaaS and Splunk Platform provides the following benefits:

  • Simplify and streamline troubleshooting workflows:  When issues are detected within backend services, the triaging workflows often requires switching between tools with separate logins to identify the root cause. With disjointed tools, you need to spend duplicate efforts to troubleshoot the issues, causing frustration and loss of productivity. The integration between Splunk AppDynamics SaaS and Splunk Platform through single sign-on enables you to quickly and intuitively navigate between products throughout the hybrid troubleshooting workflow, thereby improving the operational efficiency. The deep linking functionality helps to maintain the context for troubleshooting and data between Splunk AppDynamics SaaS and Splunk Platform.
  • End-to-end visibility across any environment: Organizations can use both Splunk Platform to get a unified visibility across any on-premises, hybrid, and multi-cloud environment and their full stack for faster, accurate detection, investigation, and response.
  • In-context navigation between AppDynamics and Splunk for log troubleshooting: The integration enables you to view the in-context logs of any performance issues in applications. With deep links from applications, tiers, nodes, business transactions, and transaction snapshots in Splunk AppDynamics SaaS, you can view the related logs in Splunk Platform. This process helps in streamlining the troubleshooting workflows, faster identification of the root causes, and resolution of the issues.
  • Reduce mean time to detect (MTTD) and mean time to resolve (MTTR) issues: The unified observability experience streamlines troubleshooting workflows, maintains workflow context during investigation, improves mean time to detect (MTTD) issues, and reduces the mean time to remediate (MTTR) issues. All these help in freeing up operations and developer resources while improving application performance and uptime. You can detect, investigate, and resolve issues faster and accurately in your hybrid environment that includes traditional applications and modern cloud native applications.
