Viewing load distribution across beanstalk cluster

stuart_robertso — Mon, 10 May 2021 13:12:04 GMT

Is there a view in Dynatrace which would show how evenly requests are being distributed across a cluster of EC2 instances fed by an ELB or ALB? I can get a primitive view into that via the services tab, looking at the Service Instances table which shows total time consumption. I bet there's a much more detailed view within Dynatrace with this information but I don't see where to find it

Hi Stuart,

As far as I know we do not provide such information in Dynatrace.

What would be the value of such presentation? Do we want to detect any patterns in the distribution? Or f.e. detect sticky session impact on the load distribution?

Hi Michal. Yes, at the time I wanted to understand the impact of sticky sessions, which could result in wild imbalances during rolling updates.
