Basics

Discover captures all HTTP or HTTPS transactions between the visitors to your web application and the servers that serve the application to them. Each request from the visitor and the corresponding response from the web server are forwarded to Discover for capture, processing, analysis, and reporting.

A request is a message that is sent from the client, typically the visitor's browser, to the server for one or more files.
A response is the information that is sent from the web server back to the client. Any binary content in the response is typically dropped from Discover capture.

A single request and a single response together form a hit , which is the basic unit of capture in Discover.

The sequence of hits that are captured from a single visitor's contiguous experience with your web application is asession.
