Dynatrace Releases Monitoring for Cloud Foundry

Dynatrace announced the availability of the BOSH add-on, providing fully-automated, AI-powered, full-stack performance monitoring capabilities for Cloud Foundry.

With the new Dynatrace BOSH add-on, organizations can now obtain full transaction visibility; from the end user, through Cloud Foundry (including all components of the platform), to the underlying IaaS, with zero-configuration. This enables organizations to streamline their development pipeline and maximize the benefits of Cloud Foundry deployments; including rapid cloud native application development, reduced operational costs, and faster delivery of business value to users.

Dynatrace is able to auto-inject into Cloud Foundry’s Garden-runC containers, enabling it to auto-discover applications, microservices and the underlying infrastructure supporting service deployments. The new Dynatrace BOSH add-on enhances these capabilities even further, enabling users to roll out its OneAgent to all Cloud Foundry components, with zero-configuration required.

“Together with Cloud Foundry, we are enabling organizations to speed-up digital innovation by accelerating the move to cloud-native applications,” said Alois Reitbauer, Chief Technical Strategist at Dynatrace.

“Our new BOSH add-on is the secret sauce that enables Dynatrace to automatically discover and monitor all applications and microservices running in a Cloud Foundry cluster, as well as the Cloud Foundry platform itself. When combined with the AI capabilities within Dynatrace, this allows organizations to obtain deep insights into microservice performance and service interactions. As a result, users can automatically detect performance problems across the full stack and optimize microservices deployments at every stage of the delivery lifecycle, to drive faster business value.”

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.

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.

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.

That realization feels like a breakthrough, like you've identified the problem. In reality, you've just identified the starting line ...
