Cisco AppDynamics is a full-stack observability platform published by Cisco that monitors application performance and correlates it with business outcomes to identify and resolve issues affecting user experience and revenue. It is a core component of the Cisco Observability Platform, integrating with network and security data to provide unified insights across hybrid and cloud environments. The platform includes AppDynamics Enterprise Edition, which delivers comprehensive application performance monitoring across distributed systems; AppDynamics with Cisco Secure Application, enabling runtime security and vulnerability detection; Digital Experience Monitoring (DEM), for tracking real user and synthetic transaction performance; Database Visibility, to diagnose backend database issues; and Real User Monitoring, which captures client-side application behavior. Additional modules include Cost Insights, Application Resource Optimizer, and Session Replay for deeper operational analysis. This technology is for application developers, DevOps engineers, SREs, and IT operations teams who need to maintain high-performing, secure applications in complex, hybrid environments and align technical performance with business KPIs like conversion and revenue.
