In which two features of AppDynamics can Information Points metric data be used? (Choose two.)

Information points in AppDynamics are designed to capture specific application data and business metrics from method invocations without requiring manual code changes. Once configured, the Controller aggregates this extracted data into standard metrics that are accessible via the Metric Browser. Because they are treated as standard metrics, they can be directly utilized in Custom Dashboards to visualize business or application performance trends alongside other infrastructure data. Furthermore, these metrics can be used in Alerting by configuring Health Rules that monitor the information point metrics and trigger automated policies or notifications when specific performance thresholds are breached.

B. Analytics relies on Transaction Analytics and BiQ to capture and query raw event data, whereas Information Points generate aggregated metric data, not individual analytics events.

C. Flow Maps visualize tier-to-tier network communication and transaction flow topology; they do not display custom method-level metrics generated by Information Points.
