You can start using Splunk AppDynamics immediately without instrumentation and configuration. Then, at a later date, you can optimize the configuration to make the best use of Splunk AppDynamics for your environment and requirements. After you install agents and restart your applications, Splunk AppDynamics automatically builds an environment of your application. You can see the model in the dashboards and flow maps view of the Controller Tenant UI. The Controller Tenant monitors your application workload, uses machine learning to determine what is normal for your environment, and applies sensible defaults for detecting abnormal activity and application errors.

The timeline in the Deployment Planning Guide outlines a typical start to your Cisco AppDynamics journey.
