Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use it for the application in our department. I use the MQ plugin which helps me step dashboards, monitor and troubleshoot the issues with the Queue depths and Enqueue/Dequeue counts. Also we have agents on a few of our applications where we monitor the systems CPU/Memory/storage of VMs. We're also working on upgrading to OneAgent.

Pros and Cons

Monitoring overall system performance
We can fine tune the applications with Dynatrace's results

Io wait monitoring
IBM MQ Message level data monitoring is not available

Alternatives Considered

With Dynatrace it is easy to set up dashboards and monitoring.
