Hello all! It took me more time than I expected to post my answer to the challenge 😂 The reason was simple: I explored several ideas, but many of them felt too similar, too generic, or not useful enough for a real operational scenario. I wanted something that was not only technically interesting, but also practical for teams using Dynatrace every day. After taking a few steps back, I started looking at frequent questions we receive from clients. While I was building a Notebook to answer one of those questions, I realized that the perfect use case was right in front of me. That is how I decided to take the challenge with **R.E.A.D.Y. - Reliability Evidence Assessment for Dynatrace Readiness** , a use case focused on turning real Dynatrace evidence into repeatable Problems Intelligence and readiness reporting.
