To simplify the Application Performance Monitoring setup, the Application Performance Monitoring (APM) for VMware Tanzu (VMware Tanzu) tile delivers a service broker to support an Splunk AppDynamics marketplace service. The Controller parameters are configured in the tile and automatically published to the marketplace when the tile is installed.

A VMware Tanzu app can be bound to the marketplace service to consume the Controller credentials.

$ cf bind-service my-pcf-app my-appd-marketplace-service

Performing a push will utilize the integrated Splunk AppDynamics buildpack support to start the APM agent based on the parameters from the marketplace service and start sending performance metrics to the Controller.

$ cf push

The tile also installs the Splunk AppDynamics extension buildpack in the VMware Tanzu environment. For more information see the buildpack support and language-specific workflows sections to enable APM.
