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.
