What is a limitation when accessing deep object fields?

Accessing deep object fields often has specific limitations, particularly in the context of data monitoring and analysis in tools like Dynatrace. The reason one can typically only access one field at a time is due to the design of the querying language or API being used to interact with the object. This design is often aimed at maintaining clarity and preventing complexity in the extraction of data.

When you focus on one field, the system can optimize performance and ensure that the requested information is directly pertinent to the analysis at hand. Accessing multiple fields at once could introduce complications, such as increased processing overhead, potential data inconsistencies, or difficulties in data interpretation. Therefore, the limitation of accessing only one field at a time is a deliberate design choice to enhance both efficiency and effectiveness in data handling.

On the other hand, methods parameters, multiple fields at the same time, or limitations to static fields do not reflect the typical constraints inherent in accessing deep object fields in the context of monitoring solutions. These alternatives may not consider the complexities and design principles around object access in analytical environments.
