Azure Event Hubs (built-in)

Dynatrace ingests metrics from Azure Metrics API for Azure Event Hubs. You can view metrics for each service instance, split metrics into multiple dimensions, and create custom charts that you can pin to your dashboards.

Prerequisites

  • Environment ActiveGate
  • To disable monitoring of built-in services, you need Environment ActiveGate version 1.245+ and Dynatrace version 1.247+.

This service monitors both Microsoft.EventHub/namespaces and Microsoft.EventHub/namespaces/eventHubs.

Only monitored Event Hubs (as opposed to Event Hub Namespaces) are directly presented on the Azure overview page, in the Event hubs section. To view metrics for Event Hub Namespace, create a custom dashboard.

Enable monitoring

To learn how to enable service monitoring, see Enable service monitoring.

View service metrics

You can view Azure service metrics in your Dynatrace environment on the Azure subscription page or on your own dashboard.

Values in the table depend upon the selected timeframe. For more details, see Troubleshoot timeframe comparison for Azure monitoring setup).

View metrics on the Azure account page

To access metrics on the Azure account page

  1. Go to Azure or Azure Classic (latest Dynatrace).

  2. Choose the Azure subscription.

  3. Select the service whose metrics you want to check. Metrics for the selected service are visible under the infographic in the service section, similarly to the example below.
