How does Dynatrace assess the actual capacity in use for each ActiveGate?

Dynatrace assesses the actual capacity in use for each ActiveGate by reviewing the data of the preceding 30 minutes. This method allows for timely and relevant insights since it reflects the most recent activity and resource consumption. Such an approach ensures that capacity assessments are aligned with the current utilization patterns, enabling Dynatrace to provide accurate monitoring and adjustments as necessary.

This short-term window accounts for fluctuations in usage patterns, which can occur frequently in dynamic environments. By focusing on the immediate past rather than averaging over longer periods, Dynatrace can respond more effectively to changing loads and optimize the performance of ActiveGates accordingly.
