Slow application performance often stems from issues with DNS communications, which can frustrate users and lead to application uninstalls. The Dynatrace Software Intelligence Platform addresses this by offering comprehensive infrastructure monitoring, including cloud platforms, virtual infrastructure, log monitoring, and AIOps, all powered by the Davis AI-driven causation engine. This platform now includes out-of-the-box DNS request tracking, enhancing diagnostic visibility into network traffic and allowing for automatic detection and analysis of DNS-related anomalies. Users can monitor metrics like request numbers, response times, and error reports, which are automatically analyzed to identify issues such as under-performing DNS servers or possible security breaches. This capability supports various use cases, such as identifying stressed DNS servers or diagnosing DNS NXDOMAIN flood attacks, while also providing a foundation for future developments in DNS monitoring. Feedback is encouraged to improve these features further.
