What does the dynatrace_ingest tool facilitate?

The dynatrace_ingest tool is specifically designed to facilitate the ingestion of metrics that are retrieved locally and then pushed to Dynatrace for analysis and monitoring. This means that it allows users to collect metrics from their own systems or environments and integrate that data into Dynatrace's platform. By doing so, organizations can gain visibility into their IT performance and health by combining their own custom metrics with the comprehensive data already provided by Dynatrace's monitoring capabilities.

Using the dynatrace_ingest tool effectively enables teams to enhance their monitoring setup, as it supports the monitoring of specific performance indicators pertinent to their operations. This is crucial for achieving a tailored observability strategy that aligns with unique business objectives and operational workflows.
