Dynatrace offers an advanced approach to failure detection in services, utilizing its artificial intelligence engine, DavisĀ®, to automatically identify and report issues such as HTTP 5xx errors and uncaught exceptions, unlike traditional monitoring systems that rely on manual rules. This capability is particularly effective for web services where developers adhere to good coding practices. However, the system can be fine-tuned to handle real-world complexities by configuring settings to ignore non-critical exceptions or include important application-specific ones. It also allows the customization of error detection rules for systems that do not rely on HTTP, such as backend processing services, by using request attributes to flag issues based on return codes. Furthermore, Dynatrace provides flexibility in how HTTP error codes are managed, allowing users to define specific codes for different service interactions to ensure accurate failure detection. The platform emphasizes the importance of maintaining high-quality data to enhance the effectiveness of failure detection, offering a 15-day free trial to new users.
