Best approach to run AppSec PoC on OpenShift: OneAgent vs Operator?

[NicoleMT]

Hi Community,
I'm preparing a Proof of Concept (PoC) for a company that wants to monitor the Application Security (AppSec) module for their microservices running on OpenShift.

My question is: what's the recommended approach to set up this PoC?
Should I install the OneAgents directly on the OpenShift hosts, or is it better to use the Dynatrace Operator?

I’d really appreciate any guidance, best practices, or experiences you can share on how to approach this.

Thanks in advance!

You shall deploy Dynatrace OneAgent in any Kubernetes environment using Dynatrace Operator. No discussion.
I'd recommend you to get familiar with Kubernetes deployment and AppSec features prior to any PoC and having a deep understanding of how it works.
