What does the 'maxConcurrentUploads' setting indicate in the Dynatrace configuration?

The 'maxConcurrentUploads' setting in the Dynatrace configuration specifically indicates the limit on simultaneous uploads of memory dumps. This parameter is crucial when managing resources and performance, particularly in scenarios where multiple memory dump files are being prepared for analysis. By setting this limit, Dynatrace ensures that the system does not become overwhelmed by too many concurrent uploads, which could lead to degraded performance or other operational issues.

In environments where application performance monitoring is critical, controlling the volume of concurrent uploads allows for more efficient processing of data, minimizing the risk of bottlenecks and ensuring that important metrics and logs are submitted in a timely manner. This setting plays an essential role in maintaining the balance between data collection needs and the available server resources.
