Onboarding of monitoring tools

An apparatus comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the apparatus to:
• receive a dataset for deployed applications, wherein the dataset comprises application identifiers and profiling information;
• generate, based on the received dataset, a first user interface;
• receive, via the first user interface, one or more user selections, wherein the one or more user selections comprises:
• an application name;
• an application identifier, of a deployed application;
• profiling information associated with the deployed application;
• and
• an agent type;
• generate, based on the application name, based on the application identifier, based on the profiling information, and based on the agent type, a software agent configured to expose operations, of the deployed application as metrics, wherein the metrics are configured to be addressable, via an application programming interface (API);
• generate, based on the software agent and the metrics, a second user interface comprising a plurality of regions configured to receive the application identifier and a selection of one or more of the metrics;
• and
• cause, based on user interactions with the second user interface and based on the selection of the one or more metrics, a monitoring application to include the application name and the one or more metrics associated with the deployed application.

One or more non-transitory media storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform steps comprising:

• receiving a dataset for deployed applications, wherein the dataset comprises application identifiers and profiling information;
• generating, based on the received dataset, a first user interface;
• receiving, via the first user interface, one or more user selections, wherein the one or more selections comprises:
• an application name;
• an application identifier, of a deployed application;
• profiling information associated with the deployed application;
• and
• an agent type;
• generating, based on the application name, based on the application identifier, based on the profiling information, and based on the agent type, a software agent configured to expose operations, of the deployed application as metrics, wherein the metrics are configured to be addressable, via an application programming interface (API);
• generating, based on the software agent and the metrics, a second user interface comprising a plurality of regions configured to receive the application identifier and a selection of one or more of the metrics;
• and
• causing, based on user interactions via the second user interface and based on the selection of the one or more metrics, a monitoring application to include the application name and the one or more metrics associated with the deployed application.
