🎥 Introducing Monaco 2.0 – Dynatrace Configuration as Code

Monitoring, or better Observability Configuration, needs to be expressible as Code in order to scale and automate into DevOps platforms enabling a true shift-left approach of managing observability configuration like managing source code.

Dynatrace has been a pioneer in open-sourcing Monaco 1.0 (Monitoring as Code) years ago. As Dynatrace has evolved from monitoring to an observability platform, it was time to rethink and expand Monaco towards all aspects of Observability configuration.

To learn more In this observability clinic where Nico Riedmann @nico_riedmann , Sr. Software Engineer at Dynatrace, does a Recap on Monitoring as Code, gives a deep dive into Monaco 2.0 Features, and does an extensive best practice end-2-end demo of integrating Monaco into your automation practices.

Hi @andreas_grabner AgataWlodarczyk

We want to deploy Managed cluster infrastructure components end to end using infrastructure as a code.
Be it Managed cluster nodes, Active Gates, One Agent installations or any other configuration that we do using UI.

Can Monaco supports end to end IaC capabilities or either Terraform or Pulumi ?

Any lead would be really helpful here with the documentations.

Thanks,

Nitesh Anand

@nanand3 Monaco (Configuration as code) allows you to deploy, manage and automate Dynatrace configuration only. For deployment of components such as OneAgents, ActiveGates, you need to use different tools such as Ansible, Puppet, Terraform or others.
