Use Cases

Increase application resiliency

Continuously modernize and reduce complexity in your applications with AI-driven architectural observability. vFunction empowers your team to reduce unnecessary dependencies and create more resilient boundaries between application domains and resources.

Decrease dependencies between domains

Reduce complexity in your distributed or monolithic architecture by addressing dependencies that affect scale and performance. vFunction instantly finds dependencies across libraries, databases, services, and more and suggests appropriate changes.

Increase modularity in monolithic applications

Create more resilient boundaries between domains to isolate points of failure, accelerate regression testing, and prepare applications for transformation into microservices.

Use Cases

Many ways to work toward resiliency and scale

vFunction helps you maintain architectural health while working toward multiple transformation goals—tackling major refactoring projects, enabling cloud-native infrastructure, and finding new levels of efficiency in your development cycles.

Discover your architecture

Map the real-time relationships, dependencies, and structure of your applications with AI-powered observability.

Prevent architectural drift

Visualize how applications change over time and get back to the baseline you set by observing your architecture after each release.

Manage technical debt

Reduce architectural technical debt in your applications by automatically pinpointing issues with business logic modularity, domain dependencies, and architectural complexity, then generate a prioritized remediation checklist.

Move from monolith to microservices

Isolate and modularize domains in your monolithic applications, then convert them to microservices with code extraction, REST API generation, and automatic framework upgrades.

Shift left for resiliency

Understanding and fixing your architecture early is akin to adopting a ‘shift left’ approach for resiliency. As in the security world, where it’s preferable to tackle vulnerabilities in the development cycle instead of attacks in production, preemptively addressing architectural issues and making the architecture more resilient can prevent significant challenges in production. While traditional APM tools try to identify performance issues before they escalate into disasters — or even when one occurs — architectural observability proactively analyzes and improves the architecture before outages have a chance to materialize.
