Most frequently an instrumented application calls to a message queue as a remote service or backend. However, in cases when an application uses asynchronous message listeners or message-driven beans as the primary trigger for business processing on an originating tier, Splunk AppDynamics can intercept the message listener invocations and track them as business transactions.

Splunk AppDynamics discovers the following types of business transaction entry points:

• Java JMS entry points.
• .NET Message Queue entry points

Message queue entry points all have similar naming configuration options for Automatic Transaction Discovery and Custom Match Rules.
