Infrastructure as code is a way to automate infrastructure provisioning and management. In this blog, I explore how Dynatrace has made cloud automation attainable—and repeatable—at scale by embracing the principles of infrastructure as code. Infrastructure-as-code. But how does it work in practice?

For cloud operations teams, network performance monitoring is central in ensuring application and infrastructure performance. Many organizations, somewhat erroneously, respond to cloud complexity by using multiple tools to monitor and manage system health. If the network is sluggish, an application may also be slow, frustrating users.
