Working with components

A component is a single data point that is collected as part of an application profile. Example: CPU Utilization. APM is licensed on a per-component basis, meaning that each component monitored uses one license. However, adding components to an application profile does not consume a license. A license is only consumed when a component is added to an application instance. Learn more about APM terminology.

Note: Applications as a whole can be components of another application (i.e. discrete application).

The following components are available for use in APM:
