According to the 2023 Kubernetes in the Wild report , 65% of organizations use Prometheus. But often, we use additional services and solutions within our environment for backups, storage, networking, and more. As part of our observability engineering strategy, we want that data as well and to make sure it gets sent to Dynatrace.

An AI observability strategy—which monitors IT system performance and costs—may help organizations achieve that balance. AI requires more compute and storage. Training AI data is resource-intensive and costly, again, because of increased computational and storage requirements. Continuously monitor AI models’ performance.
