Dynatrace is transitioning from Extension Framework 1.0 to the more advanced Extension Framework 2.0, which now supports JMX and Python data sources, offering improved security, scalability, and ease of use. This upgrade is mandatory but not automatic, requiring users to manually migrate their extensions with the help of Dynatrace's provided tools and documentation. Extension Framework 2.0 enhances the monitoring capabilities of SNMP, WMI, SQL databases, and Prometheus technologies, and introduces Python support to address complex use cases that require coding. It simplifies deployment through declarative, YAML-based extensions, which are automatically distributed and scalable, while coded extensions in Python are sandboxed for security. The new framework ensures comprehensive metric support and provides pre-configured reporting and analytics tools. Dynatrace has already begun updating key extensions to the new framework and plans further training sessions to assist users with the migration process, aiming to complete the upgrade by October 2024 when support for Python extensions 1.0 will end.
