Overview

Our SAP ABAP platform monitoring solution is based on a remote monitoring approach implemented as a Dynatrace ActiveGate extension. The extension queries SAP servers for key performance counters. Collected metrics are analyzed in Dynatrace, using the SAP expert community’s established best-practice advice on ABAP platform health indicators, including response time breakdowns of the response times between ABAP-specific application server activities, tasks, and database interaction.
