Viewing Application Dependencies

To assist you in creating migration plans and designing architectures for the target environment, MgC organizes the relationships between your resources and applications. It then represents these technical architectures and dependencies into graphs.

Viewing the Technical Architecture

  1. On the Applications page, click Technical Architecture in the Application card, and view a matrix of all discovered services, microservices, and resources.
  2. Right-click a service and view its technical architecture, dependencies, and microservices.

Viewing Applications

On the Applications page, under Applications, you can view all applications in the current migration project. In the application list, you can view the application name, type, business domain as well as the number of involved microservices, downstream applications, and upstream applications.

  • To view all microservices contained in an application, click the number in the Microservices column.
  • To view all applications that an application relies on, click the number in the Upstream Applications column.
  • To view all applications that an application is relied on, click the number in the Downstream Applications column.
  • To view what microservices and resources are used by an application as well as their layers and associations, click Technical Architecture in the Operation column. In the displayed technical architecture, click a microservice or resource node to view its details.
  • To view the associations between an application and its upstream and downstream applications, you can click Dependency Map in the Operation column. To view the details about this service and its upstream and downstream services, click its box.

Viewing Resource Candidates

  1. On the Application Discovery page, click Candidates in the Source Resources card.
  2. On the Resources tab, view the list of all collected resources and their details.

    • To view the associations between a service and its upstream and downstream services, you can click Service Dependencies in the Operation column.
    • To delete a service, click Delete in the Operation column.

Viewing Microservices

  1. On the Applications page, click Candidates in the Source Resources pane.
  2. Click the Microservices tab to view the list of all collected microservices.

    • To view the layer of a microservice and its associations with other resources, click Technical Architecture in the Operation column. In the displayed technical architecture, click a microservice or resource node to view its details.
    • To view the associations between a microservice and its upstream and downstream services, choose More > Service Dependencies in the Operation column. To view the details about this microservice and its upstream and downstream services, click its box.
    • To delete a microservice, click More > Delete in the Operation column.

Exporting Application Dependencies

On the Applications page, click Export in the Applications card to export the access-layer call chains, database dependencies, middleware dependencies, and application dependencies for further analysis.
