Product news
- Leverage logs for an end-to-end view of your business processes via Dynatrace OpenPipeline
Organizations in today’s data-driven world often struggle with fragmented data sources that hinder comprehensive business insights. With Dynatrace OpenPipeline, you can ingest logs from any system and extract relevant business data to get a cohesive end-to-end view of your business processes.
- Dynatrace observability now available for Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Z and LinuxONE mainframes
Observability is fundamental when working with hybrid workloads. It serves as the foundation for informed decision-making and efficient operations. Observability provides valuable insights into system performance, resource utilization, and application health. However, achieving the end-to-end observability required to ensure the smooth operation of your systems and applications and, thus, business continuity, is challenging.

| Component | Resolved issues |
|---|---|
| Credential vault | 1 |
| Dynatrace Cluster | 7 |
Credential vault
- The Credential Vault API now accepts `UserIDs` in the `allowedEntities` list (behavior aligned with web UI). (SYNTH-11699)
Dynatrace Cluster
- For Davis Grail event records, `dt.entity.<type>.name` is now also set for entities that are part of `related_entity_ids`. (DI-14796)
- The synthetic monitors list no longer displays the same value “no runs for xx time” for every inactive monitor (it now displays the last execution time, not the last seen time). (SYNTH-11641)
- Improved the timeframe calculation for "Today" in the timeframe selector (previous Dynatrace). (PAPA-18244)
- The application version is no longer added to external calls by default. A new feature flag, `addApplicationVersionToExternalCalls`, has been introduced. Setting its value to `true` enables the former behavior. (TI-12971)
- Fixed edge cases in a token rotation service that caused occasional issues with the delivery of Synthetic monitor results to the Dynatrace Cluster. (SYNTH-11677)
