Observability platform Dynatrace has made its Live Debugger generally available to developers, service providers and enterprises.
First promoted at its partner and customer event in Las Vegas earlier this year, Dynatrace says the tool can “seamlessly” debug thousands of services concurrently in a production environment, without interrupting running code.
“As enterprise cloud and AI application environments become more dynamic and complex, traditional approaches to debugging applications are no longer sufficient to meet these demands,” says the provider. “Dynatrace Live Debugger addresses this challenge head-on, delivering real-time, non-intrusive insights that accelerate problem-solving and streamline performance monitoring at scale.”
Early adopters, including TELUS, have reported reducing debugging times by “up to 95%”. “Before using Live Debugger, getting any information about a bug would involve adding log lines, going through deployment, and waiting for rollout,” said Dana Harrison, principal site reliability engineer at TELUS. “With Live Debugger, what used to take us 45 minutes now takes just two minutes - a 95% reduction in debugging time.”
“We are providing developers with the data they need to succeed while protecting application performance, and we’re addressing a tremendous market opportunity, empowering developers with an experience built for the complex agentic AI environments of the future,” said Steve Tack, chief product officer at Dynatrace.
Dynatrace has around 4,500 customers and 700 partners globally. Around 70% of the firm’s business is done through partners.
