All Azure cloud services

Dynatrace can receive Azure Monitor metrics for multiple preselected services.

  • You can view graphs per service instance, with a set of dimensions, and create custom graphs that you can pin to your dashboards.
  • You can reduce your Azure Monitor costs and throttling by selecting which additional services to monitor.
  • For non-classic (formerly "non-built-in") services, you can choose which metrics to monitor.

Azure cloud services monitored by default

As a result of Azure monitoring integration, some services are monitored out-of-the-box.

For information about differences between classic services and other services, see Migrate from Azure classic (formerly "built-in") services to cloud services.

Other Azure cloud services

Apart from cloud services monitored by default, you can also monitor other Azure services that affect the performance of your Azure-hosted applications.

Cloud services with their respective Dynatrace entity types

Not all cloud services have Dynatrace entities created for them and can have tags imported from the cloud. Expand the table below to see cloud services with their respective Dynatrace entity types and to check if they have tags imported from the cloud provider.

Monitoring consumption

All cloud services consume DDUs. The amount of DDU consumption per service instance depends on the number of monitored metrics and their dimensions.

  • Each metric dimension results in the ingestion of 1 data point
  • 1 data point consumes 0.001 DDUs
