could you please let me know which ingestion method we should use?

[Yosi_Neuman]

It's deepened on what is your use case, can you please elaborate a bit which metrics you want to collect from where and when (i.e. what is the frequent of the collection) ?

My use case is about how to push the metrics from app server to dynatrace ,i am doing it in generic way so it is not specific to app server 

[Yosi_Neuman]

In this case I would use Metrics API - POST ingest data points  or as @AntonioSousa  suggested Send data to Dynatrace with OpenTelemetry - Ingest custom metrics

@a_lakimsetty,

If you are dealing with instrumenting your own application, take a look at OpenTelemetry.

If you are looking at application server metrics, you should really go with OneAgent. Is this is the case, why can't you?

[a_lakimsetty]

The challenge is that without oneagent we should push the metrics from app server to dynatrace.

Is there any method or solution ? Can you please let me know any method or solution ?
