Applications
The Applications navigation menu of the Viewer desktop provides a centralized view of the company's application landscape. It enables you to:
• access the application inventory
• explore how applications are organized into portfolios
• view associated transformation projects
• identify the microservices that make up the information system.
It serves as a key entry point for understanding the application landscape, tracking its evolution, and analyzing the relationships between applications, projects, and software components.
This menu provides access to application cards:
*The card of an object is meant to provide an overview of the properties that identify the object.
