SaaS/On-premises Analytics Configuration

When you deploy Analytics with the Analytics Agent, the configuration requirements differ based on your deployment.

  • SaaS: The Events Service is provided as part of the SaaS service. Splunk AppDynamics stores the data and hosts the server components of the system for you. You need to install only the Analytics Agent components of the system described in Agent Side Components.
  • On-premises: You host the components yourself, storing all data on-premises. You need to install the Agent Side Components, Controller Deployment Components, and Events Service Deployment Components. While the on-premises deployment involves additional setup and administration, you are able to retain the Analytics data in your own data center.
