Serverless APM in the Controller
When business applications contain serverless functions, the Controller experience differs slightly in flow maps, dashboards and ;metric browser ;pages, and health rules.
Flow Maps
Flow maps are a dynamic visual representation of your monitored environment's components and activities. When business applications have serverless functions, you cannot view the nodes within flow map tiers because of the opaque nature of serverless platforms. A serverless icon replaces the node count in the application flow map.

Dashboards and Metric Browser ;Pages
You can view AWS Lambda functions on your application dashboards and metrics pages. All functionality is identical to that which you would get with any other tier type, with the exception of node-level granularity. AWS Lambda tiers do not offer node-level dashboards or metrics because serverless platform runtime instances ;spin up and down on demand.
Health Rules
When you configure a health rule for an application comprised of serverless functions, you can choose to monitor the serverless tiers or business transactions that originate in or flow through the serverless functions. See Configure Health Rules.
