In order to push locally retrieved metrics to Dynatrace, which tool should be used?

To push locally retrieved metrics to Dynatrace, the appropriate tool to utilize is dynatrace_ingest. This tool is specifically designed for ingesting data, including metrics, into the Dynatrace platform, enabling users to send their custom metrics and other data for monitoring and analysis.

Using dynatrace_ingest allows for seamless integration of locally gathered metrics, ensuring they are properly formatted and transmitted to the Dynatrace environment. This is essential for maintaining accurate monitoring and gaining insights from the collected data, contributing to overall performance management and observability within your applications and infrastructure.

Other tools mentioned, while potentially valuable in different contexts, do not serve the specific function of metric ingestion needed in this scenario. Each of them has distinct purposes unrelated to directly pushing metrics into Dynatrace. Thus, choosing dynatrace_ingest is the best option for this task.
