I have a monitoring requirement on Oracle Exadata Insights Data Warehouse. Does Dynatrace has API to monitor Oracle Exadata or what is the best option to monitor it? ---

Hi Rupinder, We’ve looked into monitoring Oracle ExaData using an ActiveGate plugin. The challenge we ran into is the lack of an Oracle provided dev environment. If you’re interested in getting help with building a plugin for ExaData and we’re able to use your environment for the development and testing, reach out to your Dynatrace account manager. Mike ---

Curious if anything ever happened here… we also have a sizable ExaData environment we need to monitor. Looking for best approach. ~Alvin ---

Hi, Nothing came out of it so far. You can sign up for the preview of the Oracle insight program to get data from the Oracle database. However, to get statistics about the ExaData components it’d still be up to yourselves or a joint development effort. Mike ---

So far no customer wanted it enough to either pay for a custom solution or open up their environment for a joint solution. Mike ---
