Introducing Harness Service Impact Verification for AppDynamics
Blog post from Harness
Harness has significantly enhanced its integration with AppDynamics to provide comprehensive service impact verification across all microservices in an application environment, allowing businesses to better understand the implications of each deployment. This integration enables organizations to instantly assess the upstream and downstream effects of microservices deployments, improving deployment reliability and reducing potential downtime. AppDynamics offers automatic mapping of application service dependencies through tracing user requests, which Harness leverages to evaluate microservice dependencies and their performance impacts. With this enhanced capability, Harness employs unsupervised machine learning to analyze time-series metrics and assess the real-time performance of microservices, providing a full view of the deployment's impact. This integration allows for automatic rollback of deployments when verifications indicate a negative impact, thus preventing downtime and ensuring a seamless user experience.
