Abstract

A method is provided that is performed using an application performance management agent running on an application and/or application microservices. The method comprises detecting a request to the application and/or application microservices for data, and inserting data compliance metadata into packet headers of packets that are to be sent in response to the request by the application and/or application microservices. The data compliance metadata comprises data-compliance markings associated with the data based on user/operator-defined data compliance requirements. The method further includes causing the packets to be sent into a network so that one or more network devices or services in the network can read the data compliance metadata and apply packet handling policies.
