Ingest logs and events without OneAgent/ActiveGate

[NickMcEwen]

We currently using a custom coded baseline "product" that is monitoring our customers cloud environments, it dynamically adds backups, handles the monitoring alerts and log reporting that sends this to Pagerduty via AWS SNS and Pagerduty Events API.

We are looking at migrating these alerts and logs ingestion off Pagerduty to ingesting via Dynatrace API so I am wondering is this also possible to ingest alerts and logs via Dynatrace API similar to what we are doing with Pagerduty obviously this is a custom solution without oneagent or Activegate to ingest CW alerts / metrics.
