Grail: Enterprise-ready data lakehouse Grail, the Dynatrace causational data lakehouse, was explicitly designed for observability and security data, with artificial intelligence integrated into its foundation. Buckets are similar to folders, a physical storage location. There is a default bucket for each table.

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.
