Sensei's Application Control engine uses "App DB" to understand and classify the application a particular connection packets carry. The database contains dynamic signatures which hint the packet engine to be able to classify the connections more accurately.
"APP DB" is maintained by Sunny Valley Networks. You can update it through Status > App DB Update & Reload
