The Data centers view is deprecated and will be removed in Infrastructure & Operations Infrastructure & Operations v.1.24. After upgrading to 1.24 or later, this view is no longer available, and data centers are not represented as a standalone entity. To view host inventory and monitoring coverage across your data centers, use the Data center overview ready-made dashboard in Dashboards Dashboards.

The Data centers view in Infrastructure & Operations monitors the health and performance of your data centers and availability zones.

Select a data center to view all monitored hosts within it.

Overview

Here's what each column in the Data centers view stands for.

Data center: The name or identifier of the data center or availability zone.
Type: The type of data center, such as:
- AWS Availability Zone
- GCP zone
- Azure Region
- Geo Location Site
Hosts:
- Total: The total number of hosts in the data center.
- Unhealthy: The number of hosts experiencing issues. Critical hosts are marked with red emphasis.
- Monitored: The percentage of hosts actively monitored within the data center. Lower than 100% means Dynatrace identified unmonitored instances based on host connections.
Location: The geographic name of the data center location.

Use cases

Identify critical issues

Check the Unhealthy column and apply the Critical alert filter to quickly find data centers with problems. Selecting the alert indicator will take you to a filtered host list, focusing on the affected systems.
Monitor coverage

Review the Monitored column to ensure comprehensive tracking of all hosts. If you notice gaps in monitoring, you can use Discovery & Coverage to extend your oversight and achieve full coverage.
