One of the main benefits of having digital experience data on Grail is that practitioners will have access to all the real user monitoring as well as synthetic data generated by their front-end applications. In addition, Grail also enables the saving of granular data such as those that do not trigger back-end requests, captured without sessions, or from apps that are temporarily offline to name a few. Furthermore, while this data can be queried with DQL not everybody is going to be familiar with writing the precise queries required. Also, while querying raw data can be especially useful there could be additional costs incurred. However, metrics, available at no additional cost, are available via dashboards and the core DEM apps to meet the needs of your use-cases.
As the data model for RUM data has changed on the latest Dynatrace, the raw data collected is different and none of the existing dashboards will be migrated over. The process of creating dashboards on the latest Dynatrace is quite easy as you simply select the metrics you want to display when creating a dashboard.

The following conditions need to be met:
In classic, customers use metrics in dashboards, SLOs as well as other places. The metrics captured on Grail are not always the same as their counterparts on classic. It should be noted that some metrics will go away and be replaced by similar ones to accommodate modern technology and applications. Furthermore, some metrics will be replaced by new ones (with the same name) that are calculated differently, so values will not be the same necessarily.
When building the metrics dashboard on the latest Dynatrace, clicking on the information (i) icon will open hints and links to further documentation where you will have information on the classic metrics that the new metric is replacing.
Currently, there are no plans yet for moving alerting profiles. In addition, there is no possibility to create problem alerts and notifications on the latest Dynatrace for October 2024. However no existing alerting profiles will stop to function and problems and alerting will continue to work as before on the old data model even if enabling the capturing of the new data model.
The built-in metrics provided from RUM data will not carry any costs when used on Dashboards, Notebooks and other out-of-the-box apps within Dynatrace.
There will not be a separate RUM explorer, but the RUM metrics can be selected through the Metric explorer and will be listed under the Frontend category.
