This page showcases new features, changes, and bug fixes in Dynatrace SaaS version 1.333. It contains:

Feature updates

Application Observability | Services

Enhanced endpoints for Service Detection v1

This feature provides complete endpoint visibility for Service Detection v1 (SDv1) services. When this feature is on, all endpoints are shown in Services without requiring you to configure key requests. Learn more.

Digital Experience | Synthetic

Added support for primary Grail tags and browser monitor execution analysis page in Synthetic

Synthetic version 1.10.0 introduces the browser monitor execution analysis page, which can help you detect and isolate specific resources in specific executions that compromise overall performance. Additionally, primary Grail tags are now supported in synthetic monitor configurations.

Digital Experience | Synthetic

Changed permissions in the Kubernetes template for the Synthetic Monitoring metric adapter

The Kubernetes template for the Synthetic Monitoring metric adapter has been updated to set the Cluster Role metric permissions to read-only.

Digital Experience | Synthetic

Monitor list redesigned in Synthetic

Synthetic version 1.9.3 introduces a redesigned monitor list with health alerts, more powerful filtering, and support for segments.

Infrastructure Observability

Show Kubernetes Monitoring ActiveGate health state in Kubernetes version 1.39.0

Starting with Kubernetes version 1.39.0, a monitoring issue alert is now displayed when an ActiveGate that is monitoring a Kubernetes cluster struggles with CPU or memory. On the recommendation page for monitoring issues, Kubernetes clusters with unhealthy ActiveGates are listed. Select one with health information to see recommended actions.

Infrastructure Observability | Clouds

View Smartscape from Clouds

In Clouds, you can now select > View Smartscape from all entity pages to open Smartscape for the selected entity.

Infrastructure Observability | Infrastructure & Operations

View Smartscape from Infrastructure & Operations

In Infrastructure & Operations, you can now select > View Smartscape from the host, process, and container pages to open Smartscape for the selected entity.

Infrastructure Observability | Kubernetes

View Smartscape from Kubernetes

In Kubernetes, you can now select > View Smartscape from all entity pages to open Smartscape for the selected entity.

Infrastructure Observability | Kubernetes

Kubernetes deployment page - DynaKube version update

Infrastructure Observability | Kubernetes

Dynatrace Classic: Helm version is now selectable on Monitor Kubernetes / OpenShift page

In Dynatrace Classic, on the Monitor Kubernetes / OpenShift deployment page, you can now choose between Helm v3 or Helm v4 for the command.

Platform

Alerting events inherit security context from their source entity

We now propagate the attribute from an event's onto the alerting events. This enables administrators to reliably define IAM policy rules that use to control alert and problem visibility at the record level (for example, policies such as ), improving access boundaries based on security context.

Platform | OpenPipeline

Pipeline groups are now in general availability

Pipeline groups are a powerful, flexible control layer in OpenPipeline that allow central platform/SRE teams to manage ingest configuration for multiple pipelines at once. They group pipelines into disjoint sets and let you enforce global policies (such as cost allocation, security context, and sensitive data scanning) while delegating service- or app-specific configuration-such as parsing and extraction-to individual teams.

This gives you a single control point for critical ingest logic and permissions, without turning every change into a central bottleneck.

We're releasing pipeline groups as an API-first version. To leverage this feature, see Get started on OpenPipeline pipeline groups for an API-based workflow to manage pipeline groups, and follow the related discussions in Dynatrace Community.

Some examples of where pipeline groups change your game for ingest configuration and collaboration with teams:

Security context and bucket enforcement
Create a "Production logs" group that forces all its member pipelines to assign a specific security context and bucket while at the same time disallows teams to apply any changes in their Permission and Storage stages.
Teams can still fine-tune parsing and processing overall, as well as extraction, but can't accidentally overwrite record-based access or send data to the wrong Grail bucket.

Cost allocation
Create groups per business unit (for example, "BU Marketing", "BU Retail") that include handling of cost center and product assignments. Any new pipeline that teams create becomes a member of one of these groups and inherits the already defined cost allocation.

Software Delivery | Site Reliability Guardian

Add contextual links to Site Reliability Guardian objectives for analyzing failed validations

To simplify the analysis of failed Site Reliability Guardian validations, you can add up to five links to the objective definition. These links are added to the validation results and to the workflow results (if the Site Reliability Guardian validation was started in a workflow), and they're stored in Grail alongside the generic Site Reliability Guardian validation, so they can be queried via DQL.

This functionality allows developers who want to review failed objectives to get more information about the objective's intended purpose and provides guidance on what to do and how to fix a failed validation. This removes the need for manual investigations and shortens the time to respond correctly to a failed objective validation.

Breaking changes

Account Management | Cost Management

Switch to the new notifications endpoint

To receive a unified feed of available notifications (budget, forecast, cost, and BYOK, where supported), switch to the new notifications endpoint. The new endpoint is sourced from Lima Notifications and may return additional notification types and minor schema metadata differences.

The is deprecated starting with Dynatrace version 1.333. It will continue to work until the announced sunset date, but it will not return the additional notification types available via the new endpoint.

Digital Experience | Synthetic

Reverted changes to metrics and

Summary

In Dynatrace version 1.333, we have reverted the previous changes to the following metrics:

Details

These metrics will now be calculated using the same algorithm that is used to report:

Whether the new Browser Monitors experience is enabled or disabled (ON or OFF) does not affect the reported metric values.

Impact

You should no longer observe significantly shortened durations (metrics keys: , ) for browser monitors (compared to values reported before rolling out Dynatrace version 1.330). However, that means that duration values reported with Dynatrace version 1.333will, for some monitors, be significantly higher than those reported with Dynatrace version 1.332.

This change preserves data continuity and removes the need to adjust custom dashboards, alerts, or SLOs.

Unchanged metrics

Other synthetic metrics introduced or modified in Dynatrace version 1.330remain unchanged and continue to be reported as before:

Infrastructure Observability | Databases

New bucket for the database extension-retrieved logs

Starting with this release, all monitoring logs from database extensions (used by some database app functionalities) are now stored in the bucket instead of the bucket.

The existing default policies have been updated accordingly. However, if you created any custom database-related policies or granted specific permissions to your DB app users, you must update those permissions to include read access to the bucket.
