Business Analytics
Business events
An event is an action or occurrence that takes place within a system or a service, such as when a customer completes a satisfaction survey or when a user selects a subscribe button. The system produces a signal when an event occurs. An event becomes a business event when it generates business-grade data. Dynatrace prioritizes business events separately from observability data to ensure business-grade data.
Query
Bizevents can be queried in Grail with the following query:
fetch bizevents
event.category
Use to augment
event.kind
and event.type
fields with an additional level of Business Event classification criteria.checkout
event.id
Uniquely identifies the event within the
event.provider
realm (event.provider
and event.id
should define a unique identification critera for the event).5547782627070661074_1647601320000
event.kind
Gives high-level information about what kind of information the event contains, without being specific to the contents of the event. Helps to determine the record type of a raw event. 1

timestamp
The time (UNIX Epoch time in nanoseconds) when the event originated, typically when it was created by the source. If no original timestamp is available, it will be populated at ingest time. Required for all events. In case of a correlated event (e.g. ITIL events) this time could be different from the event.start time, as this time represents the actual timestamp when the "update" for the event was created.

Carbon business events
Carbon business events contains carbon dioxide emissions (in grams) and energy consumption (Wh) that are calculated for hosts that are set up and monitored with OneAgent. Energy calculations are based on observed infrastructure metrics. The events are generated every hour by Carbon Impact app through an automation (Workflow).
Other sources of emissions data can be ingested as business event following this schema to make it consumable by Carbon Impact app.
Query
Carbon bizevents can be queried in Grail with the following query:
fetch bizevents| filter event.type == "carbon.measurement"
carbon.emissions
Total emissions in grams of CO₂ equivalent generated by the energy consumption estimations including not only computing but also datacenter cooling, lighting and other consumptions.
carbon.intensity
Value of carbon intensity (the number of grams of carbon dioxide (CO₂) that it takes to make one unit of electricity a kilowatt per hour (kW/hour)) defined in watt/hour to CO₂ equivalent grams used to transform energy estimation in emissions.
