Dynatrace has developed the purpose-built data lakehouse, Grail , eliminating the need for separate management of indexes and storage. All data is readily accessible without storage tiers, such as costly solid-state drives (SSDs). No storage tiers, no archiving or retrieval from archives, and no indexing or reindexing.

As a result, organizations need software to work perfectly to create customer experiences, deliver innovation, and generate operational efficiency. The only way to address these challenges is through observability data — logs, metrics, and traces. Your key business objectives will drive your strategy and metrics.
