Harness SRM supports the following health sources:
- AppDynamics

Harness offers support for all major APM vendors, but there are cases where a customized APM is needed. The Custom Health Source lets you customize APMs of your choice.

Change sources enable you to monitor change events related to deployments, infrastructure changes, and incidents.
Harness SRM supports the following change sources:
- Harness Continuous Delivery
- Harness Chaos Engineering

Governance
Harness Policy As Code uses Open Policy Agent (OPA) as the central service to store and enforce policies for the different entities and processes across the Harness platform.
You can centrally define and store policies and then select where (which entities) and when (which events) they will be applied.
Currently, you can define and store policies directly in the OPA service in Harness.
Soon, you will be able to use remote Git or other repos (for example, OCI-compatible registries) to define and store the policies used in Harness.
SRM early access features
Some Harness SRM features are released behind feature flags to get feedback from a subset of customers before releasing the features to general availability.
You can opt-in to the early access (beta) features for Harness SRM described in the following table. Contact Harness Support to enable specific early access features in your Harness account. Include the feature flag or name with your request.
For more information about early access features, including early access features for the Harness Platform, delegate, and other Harness modules, go to Early access features.
| Flag | Description | Availability |
|---|---|---|
SRM_LOG_HOST_SAMPLING_ENABLE | Harness was automatically applying an alternate deployment strategy even if the required data for the deployment configured in the Verify step was not available. Now, Harness does not automatically apply an alternate deployment strategy if the required data is not available. Instead, Harness fails the CV. Harness automatically applies an alternate deployment strategy only if you choose the Auto option in the Continuous Verification Type dropdown list when configuring the Verify step. | Beta Note: This feature was released for early access in 2022. Early access features from past releases might have been promoted to GA since their original release. |
