Dynatrace: From Discovery to Expertise

1. How does Dynatrace identify a unique user in the RUM module without an explicit login?

By IP address only Through a persistent browser cookie By their screen size It can't

2. What is Dynatrace's 'Data Lakehouse' storage called?

S3 Elasticsearch Grail Prometheus

3. What is the name of the artificial intelligence built into Dynatrace?

Cortana Watson Davis Copilot

Chapter Monitoring with robots at a defined frequency

4. What is 'Synthetic Monitoring' used for in Dynatrace?

Creating fake metrics for load tests Simulating user activity from robots to check availability 24/7 Generating artificial RUM data Anonymising production data

5. Can the Davis AI predict disk saturation before it happens?

No, it only reacts to failures Yes, through predictive analysis based on consumption trends Only if the disk is more than 99% full Only on Windows

6. What is the maximum execution frequency of an HTTP Monitor?

Every hour Every minute Every second Once a day

7. How do you instrument an existing Java application deployed on a host machine?

You must modify the application's source code Install OneAgent on the host and restart the Java process; it will be instrumented automatically Send the Java logs to the ActiveGate Manually add an external library via Maven

8. What is the benefit of using 'Request Attributes'?

Changing the colour of charts Extracting specific values from HTTP requests (e.g. customer ID, basket amount) to filter PurePaths Reducing CPU consumption Blocking unauthorised access

9. What does Dynatrace call a 'Problem'?

A ticket opened by a customer with support A set of anomalies correlated and analysed by the Davis AI that identifies a root cause An isolated 500 error A slow SQL query

10. What are 'Network Zones' used for in a Dynatrace architecture?

Creating VLANs Routing OneAgent traffic preferentially to a local ActiveGate to reduce data transfer costs Blocking malicious IP addresses Configuring DNS

Chapter Monitoring with robots at a defined frequency

13. What is the main billing difference between an HTTP Monitor and a Browser Monitor?

17. Which feature lets you link a frontend error detected in RUM to a specific exception in the backend code?

Smartscape End-to-end Tracing (PurePath) Log Analytics Dashboarding

18. What is 'eBPF' technology used for in the Dynatrace context (via Beyla)?

Speeding up the graphical interface Collecting traces and metrics without any source code change or restart (network auto-instrumentation) Storing logs on disk Replacing SQL databases

19. What can you do with the 'oneagentctl' tool?

Deploy dashboards Configure OneAgent settings locally (hostgroup, tags, proxy) from the command line Buy additional licences Restart the Dynatrace cluster
