Amazon Textract

Amazon Textract is a machine learning (ML) service that automatically extracts text, handwriting, layout elements, and data from scanned documents.

Prerequisites

To enable monitoring for this service, you need

  • ActiveGate version 1.197+

    • For Dynatrace SaaS deployments, you need an Environment ActiveGate or a Multi-environment ActiveGate.

    • For Dynatrace Managed deployments, you can use any kind of ActiveGate.

      For role-based access (whether in a SaaS or Managed deployment), you need an Environment ActiveGate installed on an Amazon EC2 host.

  • Dynatrace version 1.203+

  • An updated AWS monitoring policy to include the additional AWS services.
    To update the AWS IAM policy, use the JSON below, containing the monitoring policy (permissions) for all supporting services.

If you don't want to add permissions to all services, and just select permissions for certain services, consult the table below. The table contains a set of permissions that are required for All AWS cloud services and, for each supporting service, a list of optional permissions specific to that service.

Permissions required for AWS monitoring integration:
  • "cloudwatch:GetMetricData"
  • "cloudwatch:GetMetricStatistics"
  • "cloudwatch:ListMetrics"
  • "sts:GetCallerIdentity"
  • "tag:GetResources"
  • "tag:GetTagKeys"
  • "ec2:DescribeAvailabilityZones"

{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Sid": "VisualEditor0",
"Effect": "Allow",
"Action": [
"apigateway:GET",

}

In this example, from the complete list of permissions you need to select

  • "apigateway:GET" for Amazon API Gateway
  • "cloudwatch:GetMetricData", "cloudwatch:GetMetricStatistics", "cloudwatch:ListMetrics", "sts:GetCallerIdentity", "tag:GetResources", "tag:GetTagKeys", and "ec2:DescribeAvailabilityZones" for All AWS cloud services.
