Which automated detection method does Dynatrace use for performance baselining?

The automated baselining method used by Dynatrace allows for continuous monitoring and assessment of application performance against predefined standards. This approach leverages advanced algorithms to dynamically adjust the performance baselines based on ongoing performance data rather than relying on static thresholds or manual configurations.

With automated baselining, Dynatrace can harmonize metrics across various environments and workloads, ensuring that the most accurate performance benchmarks are established and maintained. It utilizes machine learning to identify normal performance patterns and flag any deviations from these patterns, which can help teams proactively address potential performance issues before they impact users.

Other methods, like manual user testing, lack the efficiency and real-time adaptability that automated baselining provides, while statistical analysis of historical data, although valuable, does not offer the real-time capabilities or automatic adjustments that are inherent in automated baselining. Similarly, real-time user feedback is useful for gaining insights directly from users but does not systematically establish operational baselines as effectively as the automated approach does.
