Enhance visibility into IT performance for proactive optimization.
As IT infrastructures grow increasingly complex, monitoring and managing components such as servers, networks, storage, and virtual environments becomes essential. This use case focuses on providing comprehensive visibility into performance and health, allowing organizations to optimize resource usage and proactively address potential bottlenecks.
We’ve listed the products and solutions that commonly address the Comprehensive IT Infrastructure Observability use case below.
Dynatrace provides an APM that supports diverse languages, architectures, and applications. It offers real-time visibility into microservices, automatic discovery and monitoring of Kubernetes workloads, and end-to-end visibility.
