To help you understand and optimize your users' journeys through your applications, we've introduced funnel charting–the ability to query and visualize conversion funnels using user session queries.
Real User Monitoring (RUM) is one of the building blocks of Dynatrace Digital Experience Monitoring and the only way to monitor your users’ experience. Another building block is Synthetic Monitoring, which adds two additional and important use cases that are hard to cover with RUM. Availability monitoring—Is my application working 24 x 7? Performance baseline […]

Receive notifications when your Cluster ActiveGates become outdated
Cluster ActiveGates serve various purposes in large-scale deployments. A Cluster ActiveGate acts most commonly as a proxy that routes traffic between externally deployed Dynatrace OneAgents and your cluster. Cluster ActiveGates are also used for Synthetic Monitoring and Real User Monitoring. As Cluster ActiveGate is a critically important component of your deployment, it's important that it remains up-to-date with the latest features and security improvements. Since version 1.182, Cluster Management Console provides the following notifications when Cluster ActiveGates become outdated:
Warning icon on respective tiles and a warning banner beneath the menu bar when a Cluster ActiveGate is more than 5 versions behind the cluster version
Error status on respective tiles and an error banner beneath the menu bar when a Cluster ActiveGate is earlier than version 1.154
To update a Cluster ActiveGate, download the installer from Cluster Management Console and run the installation. For more information, see How to install a Cluster ActiveGate.
What's next?
In upcoming releases we'll enable a single-click update option for Cluster ActiveGate and automatic updates, to save you time and effort. Read Environment ActiveGates can now be updated with a single click on our blog to learn about this feature, which is already available for Environment ActiveGates.

DB Insights, most time consuming Oracle statements - per SQL Query graphs would not match the totals displayed for this query in the table row. Graph data would be trimmed to match the UI timeframe. While the table data would match an expanded timeframe covered by the metric store. So the graphs would display less data than was summarized in a table row. The timeframe expansion performed by the metric store is a result of lowering data granularity. Eg if 1-hour granularity is available for a given timeframe and the requested timeframe would not match 1-hour slot boundries exactly, the timeframe would be implicitly expanded by the metric store to cover all the partially matching timeslots. So requesting a 1 hour 30 minute timeframe where 1 hour granularity is available 2 hours' data would be returned. (APM-196732)
