Dynatrace (formerly Compuware APM) unveiled a new partnership with VMware announcing that Dynatrace has achieved VMware Ready- vCloud Air status. Dynatrace enables organizations to seamlessly move existing and new applications to the cloud by delivering the visibility and control across the entire application delivery chain needed to solve issues and optimize performance for end-users.
Dynatrace is a member of the access tier of the vCloud Air ISV program, and is the first modern APM solution available on the VMware Solution Exchange for vCloud Air users.
“We are pleased Dynatrace has joined the vCloud Air ISV Program and has achieved VMware Ready- vCloud Air certification. Dynatrace works seamlessly within VMware vCloud Air, and can be deployed in production with confidence,” said Sanjay Katyal, Vice President, Global Alliances & OEMs, VMware. “This is significant for our customers because it brings two trusted companies together – the market leader in virtual environments and the market leader in APM – to help organizations accelerate transitions to the cloud.”
VMware’s vCloud Air platform is designed to make the shift to the cloud as simple as possible, delivering a high degree of homogeneity between on-premise and cloud architecture, allowing for easy migration of applications between the two environments.
Dynatrace makes this even easier by addressing and solving numerous IT challenges. Highlights include:
- A complete view of all transactions across the entire application delivery chain, from end-users across all application tiers to the database and back.
- Identification and resolution of problems caused by third-party services.
- Ability to scale smartly. Dynatrace enables IT to understand capacity needs with metrics like transaction-load or user-load patterns.
“Using Dynatrace on vCloud Air, enterprises gain end-to-end transaction visibility across the entire application delivery chain, with auto-discovery and performance baselines, to identify bottlenecks and performance hot spots wherever they occur,” said Steve Tack, Vice President of Product Management at Dynatrace. “This delivers an immediate ROI and enables organizations to deploy their apps faster, accelerate performance, and determine the root cause of issues in minutes, not days or weeks, to improve bottom line business results.”
The VMware Ready program is a co-branding benefit of the Technology Alliance Partner (TAP) program that makes it easy for customers to identify partner products certified to work with VMware cloud infrastructure. Customers can use these products and solutions to lower project risks and realize cost savings over custom built solutions. With thousands of members worldwide, the VMware TAP program includes best-of-breed technology partners with the shared commitment to bring the best expertise and business solution for each unique customer need.
Dynatrace can be found within the online VMware Solution Exchange (VSX).

I've spent a lot of time in the channel, and one thing I keep coming back to is this: a partner program is only as good as what it looks like in the field. Many programs look great on paper, but when a partner is in front of a customer navigating a complex hybrid environment or trying to make the case for AI-powered observability, the gap between what a vendor promises and what it actually delivers becomes very clear, very fast ...
Enterprises today operate in a real-time environment where uninterrupted access to trusted data has become a baseline expectation for users, applications and automated systems. Traditional DataOps models, built on manual effort and human triage, cannot keep pace with this always active demand. AI agents are emerging as the operational backbone, ensuring consistent data availability, reinforcing trustworthiness and enabling a level of scale that manual processes cannot achieve ...
For decades, trust in the digital workplace rested on familiar signals. We trusted faces on video calls, voices on the phone, and emails that appeared to come from people we knew. These cues felt human and intuitive. They anchored how decisions were made, approvals were granted, and access was authorized. AI-powered deepfakes have quietly broken that model ...
Cloud migration was supposed to be a one-way door. For most enterprises, it turns out it isn't. Cloud data repatriation is a real and growing trend. A new survey ... finds that 89% of organizations plan to expand their on-premises infrastructure footprint over the next two years — and 75% have already moved at least some workloads back from public cloud in the past 24 months. The findings point to a broad rethinking of where data belongs ...
Over the past few years, large language models (LLMs) have revolutionized the software industry. Given their ability to excel at multi-step reasoning, LLMs have helped enterprises streamline workflows and adapt to the unknown. However, employing such models comes with sky-high costs, latency issues, and limited flexibility. In the realm of IT operations, it is generally wiser to employ smaller, domain-specific models instead ...
For years, DevOps teams operated under a simple assumption: collect enough telemetry, and you can find and fix any problem. That assumption is breaking down. Modern enterprises now operate across microservices, hybrid cloud environments, APIs, Kubernetes, and highly automated delivery pipelines. Releases happen continuously, dependencies shift constantly, and failures spread faster than teams can diagnose them ...
New Relic surveyed IT and engineering leaders from the media and entertainment (M&E) sector to understand what's working — and where challenges persist with their observability practices. The findings reveal how M&E organizations are navigating rising platform complexity, audience expectations, and AI-driven change. Below are five takeaways that stand out ...
Let me start with something I've seen play out more times than I can count. A team hits a wall with the cloud. Costs creep up, then spike. Performance starts to feel inconsistent. Someone in finance asks a simple question like "why did this double?" and nobody has a clean answer ... Maybe this isn't the right place for everything. That realization feels like a breakthrough, like you've identified the problem. In reality, you've just identified the starting line ...

In cloud-native systems, scaling is often as simple as moving a slider. For on-premise databases, the stakes are different. Over-provisioning hardware is expensive. Under-provisioning leads to performance bottlenecks that are difficult to fix once the equipment is in the rack ...
