Introduction

The Available Apps option provide a centralized way to manage app detection rules. App definitions are how the agent decides the name of the application and how to identify the application created (for example, what port it runs on). OpsRamp provides a set of out-of-the-box app definitions for common technologies like Apache or Redis.
