Overview
Dynatrace is the innovator behind the industry’s premier Digital Performance Platform. Gartner had recognized Dynatrace as APM leader now for 6 consecutive years. More than 8,000 customers trust Dynatrace. Our experience and knowledge has been bundled to develop a new generation of monitoring software. Dynatrace digital performance monitoring covers web scale application environments down to each individual transaction – with no gaps or blind spots – including front end, application performance, infrastructure, containers, and cloud platforms, like OpenStack.
The Dynatrace Fuel plugin introduces two new node roles called Dynatrace OneAgent and Dynatrace Security Gateway. In order to work properly you need an active Dynatrace account (free trial also works) and access to your SaaS account or a Dynatrace Managed node/cluster on premise.
* Dynatrace OneAgent The Dynatrace OneAgent role must be applied to all nodes in your environment that have the Controller role. The OneAgent instruments the OpenStack services and also the supporting services like MySQL, RabbitMQ, Memcached, HAproxy, ... and sends all monitoring and log data to the node with Dynatrace Security Gateway role.
* Dynatrace Security Gateway The Dynatrace Security Gateway role must be applied to a standalone physical machine, where no other OpenStack service is running. If you plan to use Dynatrace for monitoring your applications that run on top of OpenStack as well, you need to make sure that the VMs where the Dynatrace OneAgent is installed have network access to the Dynatrace Security Gateway node.
