# Agent based dependency analysis using Azure monitor agent (AMA)
1414

15-
[Azure Monitor Agent (AMA)](/azure/azure-monitor/agents/azure-monitor-agent-overview) replaces the Log Analytics agent, also known as Microsoft Monitor Agent (MMA) and OMS, for Windows and Linux machines, in Azure and non-Azure environments, on-premises and other clouds.
15+
Dependency analysis helps you to identify and understand dependencies across servers that you want to assess and migrate to Azure. We currently perform agent-based dependency analysis by downloading the [MMA agent and associating a Log Analytics workspace](concepts-dependency-visualization.md) with the Azure Migrate project.

1. Download and run the script on the host machine as detailed in [Installation options](/azure/azure-monitor/agents/azure-monitor-agent-manage?tabs=azure-portal#installation-options). To get the AMA and the Dependency Agent deployed on the guest machine, create the [Data collection rule (DCR)](/azure/azure-monitor/agents/azure-monitor-agent-data-collection) that maps to the Log analytics workspace ID.
