Dynatrace emphasizes the importance of securing production environment resilience, particularly following widespread outages due to a routine software update in July 2024. The company’s OneAgent solution, a unified monitoring tool, is designed to automatically discover and monitor IT environments, providing comprehensive access to hosts, processes, services, and applications. Their approach to minimizing risks involves rigorous safety measures throughout the software development lifecycle, including dependency management, extensive testing, a month-long hardening phase, and a controlled, phased rollout process. OneAgent ensures continuous monitoring and security by injecting monitoring code without manual configuration, and it employs artifact signing to prevent unauthorized changes. Furthermore, Dynatrace implements 24/7 automated monitoring, real-time health insights, and proactive analysis to address potential issues swiftly and maintain system stability, thereby enhancing the reliability and security of IT environments.
