When should URI Segments be used in Transaction Detection rules?

AWhen identifying business transactions using particular parts of the SMTP request

BWhen the application uses message-oriented technologies

CWhen the application is a Web-Oriented Technology

DWhen the agent names the business transaction for the Web service name plus the operation name

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

URI Segments should be used in Transaction Detection rules when the application is web-oriented. Web-oriented applications often have meaningful information in the URI that can identify different business transactions. URI Segments can help in defining patterns that match specific parts of the URI to distinguish different transactions.

I think the agent naming the business transaction for the Web service name plus the operation name is a good reason to use URI Segments.
