Different levels of abstraction

Automatically understand the technology stack, application layers, and dependencies with 5 levels of granularity - from abstracted services to object level granularity.

Different levels of abstraction

End-to-End transaction views

Quickly view the entire flow of a transaction in the application. Starting from UI, traversing through several intermediate layers and ending in the database.

End-to-End transaction views

Module views based on Tagging

Tag components that constitute the same function or module and visualize how the different modules interact with each other in an application.

Module views based on Tagging

Inventory of all technology components

Inventory and export all the languages, frameworks, libraries, and databases used in the application.

Inventory of all technology components

Visualize Inter-App Dependencies

Instantly identify the type of dependencies between applications and investigate the impact of breaking off the linkages.

Visualize Inter-App Dependencies
 

Precise, deep analysis of application structures

 

Search for frameworks and show where they are used

Quickly identify frameworks/DLLs/libraries, their associated dependencies and pinpoint where they are used.

Search for frameworks and show where they are used

Data access graph

Automatically identify and map the pathways of all the components that are involved in processing or using a data entity.

Data access graph

API call graph

Automatically identify API routes with tight dependencies between them (hard to separate) and flows with low dependencies (to be considered for separation).

API call graph

Visualize interdependencies & their types

Map how the different software components interact with each other in a complex multi-technology application. Visualize the effects of single component change on the entire application.

Visualize interdependencies & their types

Auto discover candidates for de-coupling

Quickly identify the artefacts (horizontal layer) contributing to functional communities. Automatically identify communities tightly coupled and with low modularity (hard to separate) and communities with low coupling that could be isolated with minimal effort.

Auto discover candidates for de-coupling

Auto discover candidates for microservices

Find the most practical (low effort) Microservices candidates. Identify core components (vertical layer) supporting several functions, a good starting point for microservices.
