Split database service by domain

Shafer_rs — Tue, 20 Aug 2024 06:46:15 GMT

Hi. I have a question regarding database service splitting... Has anyone encountered this issue? Dynatrace has Full Web service rules that allow you to split services by different properties, but these properties imply web requests, and databases are detected based on JDBC or ODBC information. How can we influence database service detection?

You can modify your JDBC/ODBC connectivity using host alias.

Can you provide more details on how to modify JDBC/ODBC connections using aliases?

Nothing to do in Dynatrace, but at your application and network level.
DNS alias pointing to the host where your database resides, and modifying your application to use this DNS alias.
