One ActiveGate with multiple AWS accounts

Surisetti — Mon, 12 Jun 2023 10:40:36 GMT

Hi Team,

we are in the process of migrating our staging, prod and different Infra environment to AWS environment.

Already we have Dynatrace SaaS monitoring configured for our Legacy/DC Apps.

Can anyone help me with the below details

1) Can one ActiveGate installation supports multiple AWS accounts with multiple regions, security policies

2) If so, what is the preferred approach (Private Link must be needed in this case with multiple AWS accounts integration with Dynatrace?)

Regards,

Suresh

Hi @Surisetti answers below:

Yes, but my recomendations is to have at least two, for redundancy.
It's not mandatory but if money is not an issue go ahead. In my case I have an instance on AWS running an AG to avoid delays, but you can also have it on premises.
Additional recommendations, is good to separate in different tenants the different environments, also have in mind that if you need to segregate functions or visibility you can use MZ.

Luck with the migration.

Thank you for your response, Daniel.

In this case one or 2 AGs supports MZ? And we must need OneAgent in each EC2 instance?

You're welcome, management zones are supported with the environment/tenant. If you want to monitor the hosts as well, yes, you need OneAgent on each EC2 instance.
