Overview

Constructs a service interface object. Each API operation is exposed as a function on service.

Service Description

AWS Application Discovery Service helps you plan application migration projects by automatically identifying servers, virtual machines (VMs), software, and software dependencies running in your on-premises data centers. Application Discovery Service also collects application performance data, which can help you assess the outcome of your migration. The data collected by Application Discovery Service is securely retained in an AWS-hosted and managed database in the cloud. You can export the data as a CSV or XML file into your preferred visualization tool or cloud-migration solution to plan your migration. For more information, see AWS Application Discovery Service FAQ.

Application Discovery Service offers two modes of operation:

  • Agentless discovery mode is recommended for environments that use VMware vCenter Server. This mode doesn't require you to install an agent on each host. Agentless discovery gathers server information regardless of the operating systems, which minimizes the time required for initial on-premises infrastructure assessment. Agentless discovery doesn't collect information about software and software dependencies. It also doesn't work in non-VMware environments.

  • Agent-based discovery mode collects a richer set of data than agentless discovery by using the AWS Application Discovery Agent, which you install on one or more hosts in your data center. The agent captures infrastructure and application information, including an inventory of installed software applications, system and process performance, resource utilization, and network dependencies between workloads. The information collected by agents is secured at rest and in transit to the Application Discovery Service database in the cloud.

We recommend that you use agent-based discovery for non-VMware environments and to collect information about software and software dependencies. You can also run agent-based and agentless discovery simultaneously. Use agentless discovery to quickly complete the initial infrastructure assessment and then install agents on select hosts.

Application Discovery Service integrates with application discovery solutions from AWS Partner Network (APN) partners. Third-party application discovery tools can query Application Discovery Service and write to the Application Discovery Service database using a public API. You can then import the data into either a visualization tool or cloud-migration solution.

Application Discovery Service doesn't gather sensitive information. All data is handled according to the AWS Privacy Policy. You can operate Application Discovery Service offline to inspect collected data before it is shared with the service.

This API reference provides descriptions, syntax, and usage examples for each of the actions and data types for Application Discovery Service. The topic for each action shows the API request parameters and the response. Alternatively, you can use one of the AWS SDKs to access an API that is tailored to the programming language or platform that you're using. For more information, see AWS SDKs.

This guide is intended for use with the AWS Application Discovery Service User Guide .

Sending a Request Using Discovery

var discovery = new AWS.Discovery();
discovery.associateConfigurationItemsToApplication(params, function (err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Locking the API Version

In order to ensure that the Discovery object uses this specific API, you can construct the object by passing the apiVersion option to the constructor:

var discovery = new AWS.Discovery({apiVersion: '2015-11-01'});

You can also set the API version globally in AWS.config.apiVersions using the discovery service identifier:

AWS.config.apiVersions = {
  discovery: '2015-11-01',
  // other service API versions
};

var discovery = new AWS.Discovery();

Version:

startImportTask(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

Starts an import task, which allows you to import details of your on-premises environment directly into AWS without having to use the Application Discovery Service (ADS) tools such as the Discovery Connector or Discovery Agent. This gives you the option to perform migration assessment and planning directly from your imported data, including the ability to group your devices as applications and track their migration status.

To start an import request, do this:

  1. Download the specially formatted comma separated value (CSV) import template, which you can find here: https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/templates-7cffcf56-bd96-4b1c-b45b-a5b42f282e46/import_template.csv.

  2. Fill out the template with your server and application data.

  3. Upload your import file to an Amazon S3 bucket, and make a note of it's Object URL. Your import file must be in the CSV format.

  4. Use the console or the StartImportTask command with the AWS CLI or one of the AWS SDKs to import the records from your file.

For more information, including step-by-step procedures, see Migration Hub Import in the AWS Application Discovery Service User Guide.

Note: There are limits to the number of import tasks you can create (and delete) in an AWS account. For more information, see AWS Application Discovery Service Limits in the AWS Application Discovery Service User Guide.

You can use these two files to quickly identify records that failed, why they failed, and correct those records. Afterward, you can upload the corrected file to your Amazon S3 bucket and create another import task request.

          This field also includes authorization information so you can confirm the authenticity of the compressed archive before you download it.

          If some records failed to be imported we recommend that you correct the records in the failed entries file and then imports that failed entries file. This prevents you from having to correct and update the larger original file and attempt importing it again.

Returns:

  • (AWS.Request)

    a handle to the operation request for subsequent event callback registration.

stopContinuousExport(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

Stop the continuous flow of agent's discovered data into Amazon Athena.

Service Reference:

Examples:

Calling the stopContinuousExport operation

var params = {
  exportId: 'STRING_VALUE' /* required */
};
discovery.stopContinuousExport(params, function(err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Parameters:

  • params (Object) (defaults to: {})
    • exportId — (String)

      The unique ID assigned to this export.

Callback (callback):

  • function(err, data) { ... }

    Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.

    Context (this):

    • (AWS.Response)

      the response object containing error, data properties, and the original request object.

    Parameters:

    • err (Error)

      the error object returned from the request. Set to null if the request is successful.

    • data (Object)

      the de-serialized data returned from the request. Set to null if a request error occurs. The data object has the following properties:

      • startTime — (Date)

        Timestamp that represents when this continuous export started collecting data.

      • stopTime — (Date)

        Timestamp that represents when this continuous export was stopped.

Returns:

  • (AWS.Request)

    a handle to the operation request for subsequent event callback registration.

stopDataCollectionByAgentIds(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

Calling the stopDataCollectionByAgentIds operation

var params = {
  agentIds: [ /* required */
    'STRING_VALUE',
    /* more items */
  ]
};
discovery.stopDataCollectionByAgentIds(params, function(err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred

    Parameters:

    • err (Error)

      the error object returned from the request. Set to null if the request is successful.

    • data (Object)

      the de-serialized data returned from the request. Set to null if a request error occurs. The data object has the following properties:

      • agentsConfigurationStatus — (Array<map>)

        Information about the agents or connector that were instructed to stop collecting data. Information includes the agent/connector ID, a description of the operation performed, and whether the agent/connector configuration was updated.

        • agentId — (String)

          The agent/connector ID.

        • operationSucceeded — (Boolean)

          Information about the status of the StartDataCollection and StopDataCollection operations. The system has recorded the data collection operation. The agent/connector receives this command the next time it polls for a new command.

        • description — (String)

          A description of the operation performed.

Returns:

  • (AWS.Request)

    a handle to the operation request for subsequent event callback registration.
