Dynatrace Observability dashboard

  • The dashboard flow should show Frontend → Backend → Database, so that we can easily identify where the issue is occurring.

  • If you have any existing dashboard for this use case, please share a screenshot or the dashboard link for reference.

  • This will help us understand whether the issue is in the frontend, backend, or database layer by simply reviewing the dashboard.

No existing Frontend → Backend → Database flow dashboard exists in your environment. Here's a clear picture of what's available and how to get what you need.

The closest match is a Service Health Overview dashboard, which covers service-level health but is not structured as a layered flow.

What Dynatrace already gives you out of the box
Before building a custom dashboard, these built-in views already show the Frontend → Backend → Database flow:
  • Distributed Tracing (Traces app) — end-to-end trace waterfall showing frontend → service → DB spans in a single view
  • Service flow — in the Services app, select any service → click Service flow to see upstream/downstream dependencies including databases
  • Smartscape — topology map showing real-time call relationships across all three layers
  • Davis AI Problems — automatically identifies which layer (frontend, backend, DB) is the root cause
