What is the Application Agent limit for Service Endpoints with respect to Controller and Agent...

The Application Agent supports a default maximum of 50 Service Endpoints per entry point type. An entry point type represents the technology or execution mechanism through which the monitored request enters the application, such as a servlet, web service, message listener, or asynchronous processing framework.

This limit prevents excessive endpoint registration and metric creation at both the Agent and Controller layers. When Service Endpoint detection rules identify more endpoints than the configured threshold for a particular entry point type, the Agent restricts registration to the permitted maximum. The limit can be governed through the relevant Agent node-property configuration, but the standard tested value is 50.

The asynchronous-worker-thread options are too narrowly scoped and do not describe the general Service Endpoint registration limit. Likewise, 25 endpoints per entry point type is not the standard default Application Agent threshold.

This distinction is important because Service Endpoints generate independent performance metrics while remaining subordinate to the associated Business Transaction.
