Deploy the Dynamic Languages Proxy

The Dynamic Languages Proxy acts as a communication gateway between the Python Agent running in the application process and the AppDynamics Controller.

You can use one of two available options to deploy the Dynamic Languages Proxy, either the:

  • Sidecar Container (recommended): This option follows the best practice of one process per container. The Dynamic Language Proxy runs in a sidecar container separate from the application container, or
  • Application Container: This option uses the default configuration to run the proxy in the same container as the application.
