Tracing the heck out of it!(no pun intended)
Dynatrace is used to monitor the health and other metrics of the oracle servers and other servers that are added in the UI. UI is quite nice and its easy to look for metric graphs and generate graphs according to requirement. Currently they have automated every process via github and jenkins and its better than before.
- Metrics addition to the UI.
- Graphs and all generation in the UI.
- Alerting mechanism also work like a charm.
- UI can be a little more user-friendly from non-tech perspective.
- Alerting mechanism needs to be more seamless.
- Performance issues with some versions which leads to lots of incidents.
- Alerting on the basis of threshold of a metric
- Graphs and visual output in the UI.
- Easy monitoring the health of the servers.
- Monitoring servers is very necessary for production and its good at that.
- Alerting based on threshold also helps for prod servers.
- The flexibility of switching from upper version to lower version is seamless.
Dynatrace UI seems better compared to splunk also DT gives better flexibility in terms of plans and costs. For logging monitoring we are using splunk and splunk is better for that purpose. But hosts and server monitoring and alerting perspective Dynatrace is better. Dynatrace is better suitable for monitoring production servers.

Benefits of Dynatrace
We use Dynatrace for monitoring application performance for the products which are developed using monolithic and microservices architectures. We use it for monitoring various performance metrics such as CPU usage, memory usage, ram usage, garbage collection, heap memory size, thread count for various processes, and for monitoring the frequency of network bandwidth.
- Flexible
- Ease of adoption
- Multipurpose
- Ease of understanding various features
- Clear documentation
- Realtime tutorials using qwiklabs
- Visualisation
- Analytics
- Discovery
- Faster failure resolution time
- One application for multiple purposes
- Easy to understand
Dynatrace gives the overall picture of the application usage and performance by default with minimal configurations whereas in Datadog a lot of manual intervention is required to analyze the application performance and troubleshooting the issues. Dynatrace is user-friendly when compared to Datadog because the features of Dynatrace is easy to understand and navigate.
