Integration
Extra features are provided through integration with other products and components:
Tivoli® Monitoring, OMEGAMON®, Netcool/OMNIbus, Operations Analytics - Log Analysis, Operations Analytics - Predictive Insights, Control Desk, IBM® Cloud, and Agent Builder.
- IBM Tivoli Monitoring
-
Agent coexistence is supported. You can install IBM Cloud Application Performance Management agents on the same computer where IBM Tivoli Monitoring agents are installed. However, both agent types cannot be installed in the same directory. For more information, see Cloud APM agent and Tivoli Monitoring agent coexistence.
If your environment has both IBM Tivoli Monitoring and Cloud APM products (cloud, on premises, or both), you can install the IBM Cloud Application Performance Management Hybrid Gateway to provide a consolidated view of managed systems from both environments. For more information, see Hybrid Gateway. For the list of supported Tivoli Monitoring agents, see Supported Tivoli Monitoring and OMEGAMON agents..
- IBM OMEGAMON
- The z Systems® Extension Pack connects one or more OMEGAMON agents that are running on your z Systems mainframe to Cloud APM. By using the z Systems Extension Pack and the Hybrid Gateway to connect your deployed OMEGAMON agents to Cloud APM, you can view monitoring data and events for your OMEGAMON application components in the Cloud APM console.
- IBM Netcool/OMNIbus
- You can forward your events from Cloud APM into your on-premises Netcool/OMNIbus event manager. For more information, see Integrating with Netcool/OMNIbus.
- IBM Operations Analytics - Log Analysis
- When your environment includes IBM Operations Analytics - Log Analysis, you can bring together application log data and performance data to help find the root cause of problems that are experienced by your applications. You can search through log data that is associated with your applications to find the cause of a problem, such as slowness or a failure. For more information, see Integrating with Operations Analytics - Log Analysis.
- IBM Operations Analytics - Predictive Insights
- Operations Analytics - Predictive Insights analyzes data and learns the normal behavior of a system. It creates a performance model and uses it to detect or forecast behavior outside the modeled range, and generates alarms when anomalous behavior occurs. You can add Operations Analytics - Predictive Insights to your Cloud APM subscription. You can then view anomalies in the Application Performance Dashboard and drill down to the Operations Analytics - Predictive Insights user interface to view more details. For more information, see Integrating with Operations Analytics - Predictive Insights.
- IBM Cloud
- You can view monitoring information for your applications within the IBM Cloud environment by using the stand-alone data
collectors. The data collectors enable the integration of monitoring capabilities with IBM Cloud by transferring resource and deep-dive diagnostics
monitoring data about your IBM Cloud applications
to the Cloud
APM server. The Cloud
APM server receives and processes monitoring information
that is gathered by the data collectors. The following types of IBM Cloud applications can be monitored:
- Liberty applications
- Node.js applications
- Python applications
- Ruby applications
- IBM Control Desk
- Integration with IBM Control Desk is available by submitting a support ticket to IBM Support. You can configure Cloud APM events to automatically open tickets in IBM Control Desk. Go to IBM Support and select Subscription. For more information about the details that are required by support to enable them to configure this integration, see Integrating with Control Desk.
- IBM Agent Builder
- You can use Agent Builder to build custom agents for any technology. For more information, see https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSMKFH/com.ibm.apmaas.doc/install/agent_builder_guide.htm.
