OpenTelemetry standardizes how organizations collect traces, metrics, and logs. Dynatrace adds the topology and context needed to connect that telemetry across user experiences, services, databases, hosts, and AI workloads. This connected context mea...
Everyone’s trying to understand how their jobs and responsibilities are changing in the age of AI. With so much code generated by AI, how can you trust what you’re shipping to production?...
The idea behind platform engineering is simple: Give developers consistent tools, paved paths, and fewer reasons to fight their way through one-off workflows. The field is maturing quickly as organizations adopt internal developer platforms (IDPs) to...
Reliability has entered a new phase. Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) adoption is high, and practices like service level objectives (SLOs) and quality gates are common. But even as automation expands and reliability practices become more sophistica...
Scaling up your observability practice often creates access control challenges. Synthetic monitoring is no exception. As more teams rely on synthetic tests to validate releases, automate operational workflows, and monitor the availability of AI or we...
From failed checkouts to disputed transactions, when something goes wrong in a digital customer journey, you often need more than metrics or events. You need to see what the user saw, what they did, and what exactly happened in the end-user browser o...
We have released Dynatrace Managed version 1.346. To learn what’s new, have a look at the release notes....
Today, the world is using LLM applications like never before, from the chatbots, assistants, and AI agents you type a question into and get an answer back from. Behind that simple back-and-forth, LLM applications do much of their work out of view, fr...
Enterprise AI spending has never been higher. But when boards ask their teams to show the return, most organizations struggle to give a clear answer; not because AI isn’t delivering, but because they’re not measuring the right things....
We have released Dynatrace OneAgent and ActiveGate version 1.345. To learn what’s new, have a look at:...

Step outside your home. The water flowing from your tap, the tolls collected on the highway, the gas that heats your stove, and the power delivered to your city. None of it runs on a web app or a mobile dashboard. It runs on something many people hav...
Making sense of that volume of data typically requires extensive filtering, manual exploration, or complex queries. Instead of spending time searching for patterns, teams should focus on understanding and resolving issues....
Site reliability engineers (SREs) and platform engineers pursue different missions with shared inputs, and AI is transforming how both operate. AI applications are becoming mission-critical, and observability must now span traditional reliability sig...
A product leader notices a dip in checkout conversions shortly after a release. So they ask on Microsoft Teams: ”Are customers abandoning checkout because of the new experience, or is something else going on?”...
Logs are where observability gets real — and where it gets messy. Volumes spike without warning. A rule that looked right yesterday can silently drop a critical source after source code changes, or go completely silent if an API token rotates and exp...
Histogram metrics preserve the full distribution of your observability data, enabling accurate percentile analysis and service-level objective (SLO) measurement. Dynatrace now extracts histogram metrics from spans and logs during ingestion with OpenP...
This edition focuses on July changes practitioners can use now: faster service and database troubleshooting, connected frontend and backend investigations, simpler onboarding, centralized fleet operations, and workflow improvements....
Modern infrastructure doesn’t sit still. Services scale across thousands of hosts and Kubernetes clusters expand across regions. And the admins responsible for keeping it all running are challenged to answer a key question: is everything actually run...
Organizations are deploying AI-powered applications and agentic systems across customer experiences, employee workflows, and critical business processes. Getting them into production is only part of the challenge. Organizations need to know whether t...
We have released Dynatrace version 1.345. To learn what’s new, have a look at the release notes....
Databricks has become a critical part of modern cloud operations. It runs scheduled jobs, interactive workloads, SQL warehouses, and increasingly, AI services. But when telemetry is split across logs, system tables, dashboards, and product views, eve...
In mid‑2025, Dynatrace Security Researchers investigated CVE‑2025‑3248, a critical remote code execution vulnerability in Langflow, a framework for building agentic AI applications. While analyzing the Langflow codebase as part of that research, we i...
Every executive is facing the same challenge: how to build an agentic enterprise where AI amplifies people’s capabilities, enables reliable AI agents across every team, and accelerates business outcomes....
When an incident hits, nobody wants to spend precious minutes scrolling through raw logs looking for clues....
Coding agents have moved from experiment to everyday engineering workflow faster than many organizations expected. Agent adoption has scaled faster than teams’ ability to understand how AI-assisted changes behave once they reach production....
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Dynatrace Managed exposes data to any authorized MCP-compatible client. Security and audit teams can now use the MCP server to access retained history in natural language. Users of Claude Desktop, GitHub Co...
A decade ago, every company with a production database had a DBA on staff. Today, that’s no longer true. The rise of managed database services — Amazon RDS, Azure Database for PostgreSQL, Google Cloud SQL — has removed the operational overhead of run...
We have released Dynatrace Managed version 1.344. To learn what’s new, have a look at the release notes....
Software supply-chain attacks have moved from edge case to everyday reality. Attackers are no longer content to wait for a vulnerability they can exploit in one of your dependencies — increasingly, they publish packages that are malicious by design a...
Dynatrace continues to strengthen data security use cases for customers operating in highly regulated industries. Building on the dedicated storage and unique encryption keys per tenant introduced earlier, Dynatrace now allows you to manage your own ...

By closing the loop between AI assistants, agents, and production telemetry, organizations can better support a disciplined AI engineering workflow....
Imagine an attacker has breached your perimeter. They’ve gained access to a container in your Kubernetes cluster and are now searching through the file system, looking for secrets (credentials, tokens, keys) that they can use to further the attack....
The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)’s recently introduced Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 26-04 is fundamentally changing how organizations need to approach vulnerability remediation....
