What is Dynatrace and how to get started (Aug 2023)

Is my app up and running? How are my users using our latest version? Do I meet my SLOs? Do we have any new vulnerabilities? Are there any new error logs in my microservice on K8s? Do I have any hotspots in my serverless distributed traces?
#Dynatrace provides all those answers: automated and in the granularity you need, supported by our own Davis AI.
Watch this tutorial to learn everything you need to know about the Dynatrace Platform, follow the hands-on tutorials to analyze K8s workloads, identify problematic distributed traces, understand security vulnerabilities, and let the Dynatrace Davis AI help you understand the root cause of issues impacting your SLOs.

How does the free trial work? If I sign up with my work email do I need to be on my work network? I get an error stating I can not access resources. from my current location.

[@dynatrace]

Hello! Thanks for your interest in Dynatrace. If you sign up for our free trial with your work email, you don't need to be on your work network to access the platform. Some areas you may be trying to access require a log-in, and if you haven't yet completed the trial registration process, that may be causing this experience. If you've completed the registration process and are still unable to access our platform or resources, we recommend visiting our support area and chatting with a support specialist, opening a ticket or browsing the Dynatrace Community: support.dynatrace.com/

Is it possible to create a dashboard based on data in a rds database or s3 json files? Say for example there is data about different tasks and jobs in a database table of in a json file in s3. Is it possible to show the data in a dashboard in dynatrace?

[@grabnerandi]

Hi. Yes. Dashboards have the option to execute custom code - and - one of the key use cases is to pull in data from an external data source.

[@marianek8092]

@@grabnerandi thank you for answering my question. Could you maybe make a video about it?

[@piyushugale]

Playground link does not exist, can you post the correct one please?

[@dynatrace]

This should now be corrected. Thank you for pointing that out.
