An example system includes a database disposed within a remote network management platform that manages a managed network, where one or more worker nodes are configured to execute containerized software applications on behalf of the managed network. The system also includes a computing device configured to request and receive configuration data identifying the applications; access traffic data generated by packet detection modules disposed amongst the one or more worker nodes and configured to (i) monitor network traffic between the applications and (ii) generate and store the traffic data which is indicative of the monitored network traffic; parse the traffic data for one or more patterns indicative of communicative relationships between the applications; based on the one or more patterns being present in the traffic data, generate mappings between the applications that have communicative relationships therebetween; and store, in the database, the configuration data and the mappings.
