Content Pack for Third-party APM

KPI reference for the Content Pack for Third-party APM

The Content Pack for Third-party APM includes Application Performance Services and End-User Experience Services. For each of these services, key performance indicators (KPIs) are used to help monitor the health of your applications, including an Application Performance Index (Apdex) score.

All parent and child services report up to the overall APM service at the top level.

Refer to the following tables for descriptions of each service and KPI for both Application Performance and End User Experience Services.
