Dynatrace introduced Dynatrace Live Debugger.
First introduced in January 2025, Live Debugger is a live debugging capability that debugs thousands of services concurrently in a production environment without interrupting running code and accelerates developer adoption through its intuitive self-service tools.
Dynatrace Live Debugger delivers real-time, non-intrusive insights that accelerate problem solving and streamline performance monitoring at scale.
Capable of supporting thousands of always-on instances and developer self-service, Live Debugger meets the requirements of the most complex modern enterprises embracing cloud and AI-native technologies in Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), RedHat OpenShift and other enterprise cloud environments.
Whether debugging cloud-native deployments or AI workloads, Live Debugger provides a scalable, intelligent solution which reduces the time, cost, and complexity to allow businesses to operate at speed without compromise.
Key Features of Live Debugger include:
- Instant Data Access: Retrieve critical code-level data on demand without adding new code or redeploying. This eliminates delays that can stretch debugging cycles for weeks or even months. Live Debugger accesses production systems through the Dynatrace platform which provides enterprise-level privacy and security controls for debugging.
- Non-Breaking Breakpoints: Inspect an application's full state, including variables, stack traces, and more, without interrupting or breaking its execution. Live Debugging avoids legacy debugging techniques that compromise performance.
- Enterprise Scale: Debug across thousands of workload instances simultaneously in real time, to easily identify unknown unknowns faster and free time for innovation. With minimal performance impact, the technology can run in the background allowing for highly flexible and comprehensive coverage.
“Dynatrace Live Debugger delivers game-changing productivity and insights for businesses managing increasingly complex cloud and AI workloads,” said Steve Tack, Dynatrace Chief Product Officer. “By enabling real-time debugging with non-breaking breakpoints, we provide developers with the data they need to succeed while protecting application performance. We’re addressing a tremendous market opportunity, empowering developers with an experience built for the complex agentic AI environments of the future.”
Dynatrace Live Debugger was recently made available as part of Dynatrace Observability for Developers, a comprehensive set of solutions that empower the developer community with runtime insights and troubleshooting capabilities.
