Dynatrace has enhanced its Kubernetes operator with the Prometheus OpenMetrics Ingest feature, allowing users to import Prometheus metrics directly into Dynatrace, thereby facilitating the creation of SLO and anomaly detection dashboards. This integration enables the collection of real-time metrics from Kubernetes clusters without relying on the Prometheus server infrastructure, as Dynatrace collects data directly from Prometheus exporters. Users can manage these metrics within Dynatrace to control data access, set alerts, and visualize metrics in context. Configuration involves adding specific annotations to the deployment files of exporters to enable Dynatrace to scrape the necessary data. The integration also supports automation through Dynatrace's Monaco tool, which allows for the seamless deployment and configuration of settings, dashboards, and alerts. This approach reduces the maintenance burden associated with Prometheus infrastructure and leverages Dynatrace's features to enhance monitoring and proactive issue resolution, making it a valuable addition for cloud-native engineers seeking to optimize observability of their IT environments.
