What is the "APM" agent plug-in used for?

I was looking at the results for the :Agent Plugin Inventory report for the purpose of correlating each plug-in listed with the function and parent application. What is the "APM" plugin used for and what application installs it? For that matter, is there a reference document that lists all of the currently available plugins and maps them to the source application and functionality in Orion?

Thanks.

I was pretty sure that "APM" was installed by SAM, but what specifically does it do?

It handles the application probes.

As everyone else is stating, APM is the SAM agent plugin. Back in the day SAM was called Application Performance Monitor aka APM, now it is Server & Application Monitor aka SAM.
