About Dynatrace
Dynatrace is an AI-powered observability and security platform that transforms complex digital environments into actionable insights. It unifies application performance monitoring, infrastructure observability, log analytics, digital experience monitoring, and application security into a single platform powered by its proprietary Grail data lakehouse and Dynatrace Intelligence AI engine. The platform supports full-stack observability from cloud-native containers and microservices to legacy enterprise stacks, enabling teams to prevent problems, automate workflows, and deliver better software faster.
- AI-Powered Observability — Dynatrace Intelligence fuses deterministic AI with agentic automation to deliver precise root cause analysis, anomaly detection, and autonomous remediation across your entire stack.
- Grail Data Lakehouse — Stores, unifies, and contextually analyzes all observability, security, and business data in real time, supporting retention from 1 day to 10 years.
- OneAgent Auto-Discovery — Automatically discovers and instruments your full stack with continuous, code-level visibility across hosts, containers, services, and processes.
- Application Security — Detects and prioritizes runtime vulnerabilities, blocks exploitation attempts, and manages security posture against standards like CIS, NIST, DORA, and HIPAA.
- Digital Experience Monitoring — Captures real user sessions, supports session replay, and runs synthetic browser and HTTP monitors to track end-user experience across web and mobile.
- Log Analytics — Ingests, processes, and queries logs in context using DQL, with flexible pay-per-query or bundled query pricing models.
- Infrastructure & Container Observability — Monitors cloud, hyperscaler, data center, and Kubernetes environments with deep metrics, topology mapping via Smartscape, and OpenTelemetry support.
- AutomationEngine & Workflows — Enables extensible, answer-driven automation triggered by observability and security insights across your cloud ecosystem.
- AppEngine — Allows teams to build custom, compliant, data-driven apps on top of the Dynatrace platform.
- OpenPipeline — Ingests, processes, enriches, and persists telemetry data from any source at scale, with native OpenTelemetry support.
- Dynatrace Hub — Provides 715+ supported technologies, integrations, and extensions for all major cloud platforms and solutions.
- MCP Server — Exposes Dynatrace capabilities via a Model Context Protocol server for AI agent integration.
