Cisco SK-APM2-SN-F-CAD APM Standard Container Add-On

Add container-focused Application Performance Monitoring capacity to a Splunk Observability Cloud deployment with the Cisco SK-APM2-SN-F-CAD add-on. It is positioned for organizations running applications as containerized services and needing APM visibility alongside the broader observability workflow. The Standard Edition designation identifies the edition named for this entitlement, while the container add-on designation identifies its intended workload focus. Containerized application environments commonly distribute a transaction across multiple services, runtime instances, and infrastructure layers. APM helps engineering teams follow application behavior through those service relationships, investigate latency and errors, and connect service-level symptoms to the workload context. This add-on is relevant where container workloads are part of the monitored application estate rather than a separate monitoring domain. The federated APM naming distinguishes this entitlement from a general-purpose infrastructure component or standalone network appliance. It is an add-on for the Splunk Observability Cloud APM environment, not physical equipment. Select it when the required deployment calls for the Standard Edition federated APM container add-on and the ordering code must match SK-APM2-SN-F-CAD. The entitlement focuses on container-oriented APM coverage within the named observability platform.
