How AppMapper Works
AppMapper brings clarity to complexity by:
Mapping Application Relationships:
AppMapper visualizes how software applications interact with each other and with the underlying infrastructure. It highlights dependencies, data flows, and potential bottlenecks, offering a comprehensive view of the ecosystem.

With the ability to incorporate cost modeling, AppMapper provides insights into the direct and indirect costs of running and maintaining applications. This helps organizations identify opportunities to reduce expenses while improving performance.
Supporting Agile, Iterative and Composable Methodologies:
AppMapper is compatible with all development and deployment approaches. This is necessary given that most functional environments are a mix of technologies and methodologies, especially in large, distributed enterprises.
Enhancing Operational Transparency:
By visualizing connections between application software, web services, DevOps workflows, hosting environments, and technology stacks, AppMapper ensures teams can pinpoint issues, streamline processes, and drive continuous improvement.

Drives Innovation:
With a clear understanding of the existing environment, AppMapper helps businesses plan for new integrations, modular extensions, or application innovations that drive competitive advantage.
Supports Cloud and Hybrid Strategies:
AppMapper facilitates the transition to the cloud or hybrid environments by clarifying which applications are ready for migration and how they’ll interact post-deployment.
