Agent Activation for Dynatrace Service for SAP BTP
Injects the Dynatrace agent into Java applications on SAP BTP, so their metrics, events and end-to-end traces go to a Dynatrace SaaS monitoring environment the customer already runs.
A Java application on SAP BTP that should report to Dynatrace needs the Dynatrace agent inside its process and a connection to the customer's own monitoring environment. Agent Activation for Dynatrace Service for SAP BTP binds the Java applications in a subaccount to an existing Dynatrace SaaS monitoring environment, and once the service is configured the agent is injected into every application at its next restart. The agent collects metrics, events and end-to-end traces and sends them to that environment, which runs in data centres hosted by Dynatrace; tags and process group IDs of the Java processes are set with JVM arguments. It stops at the connection: it is described for Java applications only, and the monitoring environment is an existing one at Dynatrace, not something the service creates.

Puts the Dynatrace agent into each bound Java application at its next restart, and the agent sends metrics, events and end-to-end traces to the customer's Dynatrace SaaS environment.
“By configuring the service, you allow the Dynatrace Agent to be injected into all your applications after their next restart.”“Enable the collection of monitoring data for Java applications running on SAP BTP, including metrics, events, and end-to-end traces, by binding the applications to Dynatrace.”“Bind the Java applications in your subaccount to an existing Dynatrace SaaS monitoring environment to monitor your workload.”“The agent then collects monitoring data, for example metrics, events, and end-to-end traces, and sends all the data to your monitoring environment running in datacenters that are hosted by Dynatrace.”“Prepare your applications for Dynatrace and customize tags or process group IDs of your Java processes using JVM arguments.”
