January 2017 Summaries

Dynatrace's latest update enhances its anomaly detection capabilities by allowing users to set performance-anomaly thresholds for infrastructure components monitored via third-party technology plugins. While Dynatrace already automatically learns and monitors baseline performance, alerting users to response-time degradations and increased error rates, the new feature enables more granular control over infrastructure performance issues that do not directly impact key business workflows or customer experience. Users can adjust threshold settings for custom plugin events through the Anomaly Detection settings and can choose to display infrastructure-only issues in their Problems feed by modifying their watch settings to include all infrastructure-related problems, regardless of their impact on applications or customers.

The text outlines the various enhancements and support updates in OneAgent, focusing on improvements across different platforms and technologies. Key updates include expanded Java support for several frameworks like Mule 3.7, JAX-WS, and others, as well as .NET Beta support for Owin/Katana, with a recommendation to contact Dynatrace Support for more information. Nginx support is updated to version 1.11.8 mainline, while general improvements include better memory usage reporting for Linux, automatic detection of various applications like ActiveMQ and CloudFusion, and improved RabbitMQ cluster detection. Stability fixes have been implemented for network and system monitoring, process crash reporting, and OneAgent auto-update, along with support for Docker 1.13 RC2 and Windows Server 2016 Security Gateway, addressing issues such as debug log flooding.
