Dynatrace SaaS release notes version 1.245

Announcements

Classic user sessions page end-of-life

We are deprecating the classic User sessions page soon and replacing it with a more powerful page for session segmentation. To stay tuned, keep an eye on our release notes.

New features and enhancements

Log processing

Starting with Dynatrace version 1.245, Log Processing is no longer in Preview. Its capabilities are now expanded very widely to execute all kinds of log transformations on ingest with new commands and functions.

Also, we added information on data types that you can use in creating log processing rules.

Disable Service insights at a host level

Cross solution - Settings

Now you can disable Service insights monitoring at an individual host level, either using a host settings page or OneAgent on a host API - Technology monitoring configuration when Service insights monitoring is enabled at the environment level.

Log ingest

Starting with Dynatrace 1.245, we extended the maximum payload size for log ingest API to 5 MB.

Problems

Problems now indicate and cross-link impacted SLOs based on the SLO entity selectors and the identified impacted.

Metrics

Prometheus Summary metric type support has been added. For existing annotated exporters, the Summary metrics are ingested by default.

Service insights

You can now disable service insights for a specific technology on selected hosts via the Dynatrace web UI and Dynatrace API when global monitoring is enabled in the Monitored technologies setting for that technology.

  1. In the Dynatrace menu, go to Hosts and open the host details page for the host you want to configure.
  2. On the host details page, select More (…) > Settings.
  3. In the Monitored technologies table for that host, find the technology, expand that row, and turn off monitoring of that service on the selected host.

Memory profiling

Applications & Microservices

The memory profiling page now opens with the flame graph as the default visualization. However, if you access memory profiling from the problem page, the hotspot table remains the default visualization. It enables you to immediately understand the highest contributor. When sharing the link to a specific page, the selected view mode is persisted in the URL.

Dynatrace API

To learn about changes to the Dynatrace API in this release, see Dynatrace API changelog version 1.245.
