Does anyone have experience with bringing in Istio metrics from EKS into Dynatrace?
I'm trying to get more Istio visibility into Dynatrace follow the directions listed here:
https://{environmentid}.apps.dynatrace.com/ui/apps/dynatrace.hub/browse/all?search=istio&sortCapabil...
This is a screenshot of the extension that shows what the Istio Data Plane metrics look like.
Here is what mine looks like:
I'm wondering if anyone else has set this up or knows anything about this topic?
I've added these annotations to the deployments of: istio-ingressgateway, istiod, my sample app I'm working with.
I'm able get all kinds of envoy metrics when I run this curl from inside of one of the sample app pods, but no istio metrics, which would explain why my istio-data plane dashboard in dynatrace doesn't show these istio_request_total metrics.
curl -s http://127.0.0.1:15090/stats/prometheus
That same dashboard shows me when new destination rules or virtual services are added/deleted, so I know it's picking up on some stuff (as well as the fact that I get Istio Control plane metrics, like these below):
