You can use OneAgent or OpenTelemetry integration to add traces to Dynatrace, including trace data from specific extensions for third-party systems, such as Serverless functions and Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) Cloud Service. This ensures, that you capture detailed trace data to analyze the behavior and performance of your applications.

  • OneAgent

    Dynatrace OneAgent is the simplest way to capture trace data. By installing OneAgent on your hosts, you can automatically collect distributed traces from your applications.

  • OpenTelemetry integration

    If you are using OpenTelemetry, you can configure it to send trace data to Dynatrace. This involves setting up the OpenTelemetry Collector and configuring it to export traces to Dynatrace.
