Automate CI/CD pipelines with Dynatrace: Part 1, Build stage

The blog post discusses how the Dynatrace observability and security platform can automate and enhance the efficiency of CI/CD pipelines, with a focus on the Build stage. It outlines the challenges faced during the Build stage, such as compilation issues and build failures, which can delay the software development process. By leveraging Dynatrace's features, such as log analysis and alert systems, teams can detect and respond to build errors more swiftly, reducing wait times and allowing Site Reliability Engineers (SREs) to concentrate on innovation. The post describes the use of GitHub actions, Jenkins, and JavaScript tasks to automate the build process, extract logs, and provide real-time notifications of errors, thereby improving pipeline visibility and efficiency. Furthermore, it highlights the role of Dynatrace in platform engineering, emphasizing the reduction of cognitive load on development teams by offering predefined development pathways and treating the platform as a product. The blog concludes by hinting at future discussions on how Dynatrace orchestration can assist SRE teams during the Deploy stage and provides resources for setting up Dynatrace as a build-stage orchestrator.
