Application performance management and observability vendor Dynatrace now has 4,500 customers and 700 partners globally, and it demonstrated this week how its growing channel will take advantage of multi-cloud and AI business opportunities.
At its flagship annual Perform event for customers and partners in Las Vegas, it released a slew of new technologies for partners to get their teeth into.
The channel heads at the company predicted further growth at the company, as the firm continues to play a more central role in the operations of enterprises with the fully featured Dynatrace platform, instead of being seen as a provider of niche developer tools only propeller heads can get their heads round.
New platform updates from Dynatrace included advancements to its AIOps capabilities, an expanded security portfolio with cloud security posture management (CSPM), and updates to its developer offer to enable them to take a more central role in business development.
These updates bolstered additional recent platform advancements, which included extended compliance capabilities to support the EU’s Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), and enhancements to the Dynatrace AI Observability solution, purpose-built to empower customers with expansive insights into their generative AI initiatives.
The aim is to accelerate problem resolution, and enable customers to adopt a more proactive approach to remediation to help them avoid issues before they occur. Dynatrace AI engine, Davis AI, has evolved to recommend solutions and operationalise best practices.
“This approach pushes enterprises beyond reactive AIOps to true preventive operations, that makes it possible to support reliable applications, operational resilience, automatic paths to resolution, and accelerated delivery of new innovations to market,” promised the company.
Among the aforementioned updates, Observability for Developers provides development teams with powerful runtime insights, advanced analytics, and a new Live Debugger to streamline troubleshooting and performance monitoring. With systems becoming more distributed and dynamic, development teams require real-time understanding of application performance, infrastructure health, and user experiences to maintain reliability and drive innovation.
By integrating Dynatrace deeper into the software development lifecycle and extending observability and security insights to developers, organisations can accelerate cross-team collaboration and turn this knowledge into business impact faster and more effectively.
For enterprises managing complex hybrid and multi-cloud environments, new CSPM capabilities from Dynatrace significantly enhance security, compliance, and resource-efficiency through continuous monitoring, automated remediation, and centralised visibility. In having the ability to view security insights within the broader context of the entire digital ecosystem, Dynatrace enables teams to respond faster, be more proactive, and mobilise the right teams to address emerging issues.
Dynatrace CPSM extends existing Kubernetes security posture management (KSPM) capabilities and enables organisations to manage their entire cloud security posture through a single, unified platform. This can eliminate the need for separate hyperscaler-specific SPM solutions, reduce operational complexity, and help organisations comply with regulatory technical standards such as PCI DSS, CIS, and GDPR.
“Businesses today operate in an era of unprecedented complexity, where success hinges on the ability to unlock insights from data, embrace innovation, and drive meaningful impact from AI,” said Bernd Greifeneder (pictured), CTO and founder at Dynatrace. “At Perform we are hyper-focused on how we turn our customers’ possibilities for accelerated innovation and business growth into a reality.
“By harnessing AI and a truly unified platform, we’re empowering an even broader user-audience – from cloud-native, AI-native, and development teams to executive and organisational leaders – to transform faster, gain a competitive edge, and deliver exceptional digital experiences.”
