Dynatrace Associate Exam
Dynatrace OneAgent - correct answer-responsible for collecting all monitoring data within
your monitored environment. A single OneAgent per host is required to collect all relevant
monitoring data—even if your hosts are deployed within Docker containers, microservices
architectures, or cloud-based infrastructure.
A single instance of OneAgent can handle monitoring for all types of entities, including
servers, applications, services, databases, and more. OneAgent gives you all the operational
and business performance metrics you need, from the front-end to the back-end and
everything in between—cloud instances, hosts, network health, processes, and services.
OneAgent discovers all the processes you have running on your hosts. Based on what it
finds, OneAgent automatically activates instrumentation specifically for your unique
application stack. It also injects all tags required for user-experience monitoring into the
HTML of your application pages. New components are auto-instrumented on the fly.
Dynatrace OneAgent : Supported technologies and versions - correct answer-You can install
OneAgent on the following Linux, Unix, Windows, and z/OS operating systems.
Real User Monitoring - correct answer-Real User Monitoring (RUM) is one of the two
fundamental constituents of Digital Experience Monitoring (DEM), the other one being
Synthetic monitoring. DEM is defined by Gartner as an availability and performance
monitoring discipline that supports the optimization of the operational experience and
behavior of a digital agent, human or machine, as it interacts with enterprise applications and
services.
Dynatrace RUM gives you the power to know your customers by providing performance
analysis in real time. This includes all user actions taken and how the various actions impact
performance. You can also easily identify problems or errors that occurred as well as user
experience ratings, geolocation breakdowns and much more. You can also gain insight into
the behavior of your users. This among others includes the number of customers who return
to your site. With Dynatrace RUM, you have the context over time and immediate analysis to
the complete picture of your end user experience.
Application and infrastructure monitoring - correct answer-Dynatrace application and
infrastructure monitoring is provided via installation of a single Dynatrace OneAgent on each
monitored host in your environment. OneAgent is licensed on a per-host basis (virtual or
physical server).
However, not all hosts are of equal size. Larger hosts consume more host units than do
smaller-sized hosts. We use the amount of RAM on a monitored server as a measuring stick
to determine the size of a host (i.e., how many host units it comprises). The advantage of
this approach is its simplicity—we don't take technology-specific factors into consideration
(for example, the number of JVMs or the number of microservices that are hosted on a
server). It doesn't matter if a host is .NET-based, Java-based, or something else. You can
have 10 JVMs or 1,000 JVMs; such factors don't affect the amount of monitoring that an
environment consumes.
OneAgent can operate in two different modes. By default, OneAgent operates in full-stack
mode. Alternatively, you can use infrastructure monitoring mode to monitor hosts that don't
