Some time ago, at a restaurant near Boston, three Dynatrace colleagues dined and discussed the growing data challenge for enterprises. At its core, this challenge involves a rapid increase in the amount—and complexity—of data collected within a company. Work with different and independent data types. Thus, Grail was born.
