Within the last few months, we set the foundation for Dynatrace CI/CD pipeline observability, which empowers you to monitor and analyze your organization's software engineering practices and delivery processes. These insights help streamline CI/CD pipelines, enhance developer productivity, and optimize your Internal Development Platform (IDP). Please read Observability throughout the software development lifecycle increases delivery performance for more details.
The official start of the preview: 17th of February, 2025
Join our preview program to gain early access to new features and provide valuable feedback to help shape the future of CI/CD Pipeline Observability with Dynatrace.
Preview is available for:
* GitHub - [Getting started](link-to-docu-page)
In preparation are:
* ArgoCD
* GitLab
Preview Overview
This preview provides guidelines for configuring Dynatrace and the external IDP tool to collect relevant data points. These guidelines represent best practices defined by Dynatrace but can be adapted to meet your specific requirements. Alongside data ingestion, the preview offers ready-made dashboards that empower you to gain deeper insights into your CI/CD pipelines.
Below are examples of GitHub dashboards.

Preview Characteristics
In general, the preview has the following characteristics:
A Monaco package is provided to facilitate Dynatrace configuration.
The Dynatrace setup includes OpenPipeline configuration and dashboards.
A comprehensive how-to guide is available for configuring the third-party tool.
The preview follows a data push approach, meaning the third-party tool sends the data rather than Dynatrace pulling it.
The OpenPipeline configuration normalizes proprietary data into Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) Events. See SDLC Eventsfor more details.
Ready-made dashboards are provided to offer insights into CI/CD pipeline activities.
