Overview

The Smartscape app provides a real-time, interactive topology of your IT environment, enabling you to analyze dependencies, relationships, and patterns across your entire technology stack. Designed for analyzing modern, multicloud, and AI-driven systems, it helps teams quickly understand and act on complex IT environments with minimal manual effort.

Explore powerful visual analytics with features like:

  • Real-time topology mapping: Automatically discovers and maps all entities (services, hosts, containers, cloud resources, etc.) and their relationships across cloud, on-premises, and hybrid environments.

  • Domain-specific views: Pre-built views for clouds, Kubernetes, services, and more, tailored for domain-specific use cases.

  • Multidimensional analysis: Use different perspectives like horizontal, vertical, or force view to identify clusters, hidden dependencies, or to analyze end-to-end workflows.

  • Seamless integration with other apps: Access Smartscape directly from other Dynatrace Apps (for example, Problems, Kubernetes, Clouds) for in-context exploration.

  • Apply your context: Filter views using segments based on cloud tags to focus on critical applications, specific teams, environments, or business units.

Use cases

  • Smartscape on Grail: Explore your entire digital ecosystem end-to-end with a unified model that connects everything from services to infrastructure for a complete architectural context.
  • Clouds overview: Gain a unified, real-time topology of AWS EC2 instances and surrounding components to analyze security posture, optimize costs, and validate architecture.
  • Kubernetes: Gain full-stack visibility by mapping clusters, namespaces, and components. Detect misconfigurations and troubleshoot issues across workloads.
  • Problems Graph: Instantly understand root cause and blast radius by mapping anomalies to impacted entities and dependency chains.
  • Service Dependency Graph: Trace call flows, isolate performance hotspots, and uncover unexpected communication paths for better service reliability.
  • Infrastructure: Navigate a real-time map of hosts, VMs, and network relationships to validate architecture, diagnose infrastructure-driven issues, and spot bottlenecks or drift patterns.

Get started

The Smartscape app is pre-installed and immediately accessible as part of your Dynatrace SaaS environment. Leverage our ready-made Smartscape views to effortlessly navigate your environments, no additional configuration needed.

ReleaseDate

Full version history

1.336.1

Summary

This release improves Smartscape reliability and consistency across navigation and UI surfaces. URLs are updated to be more robust and easier to share, while tooltips and legends better reflect Grail data and standardized naming. It also introduces clearer empty states and error pages, along with targeted fixes in VRP and notifications to reduce disruption during analysis.

Note: This release includes a breaking change to the URL pattern/structure.

Changes

  • BREAKING: Updated all view URLs to a new, more consistent and future-proof schema. The new URLs also support additional view parameters to help preserve context when sharing.
  • Switched from using query parameters to hash parameters in Smartscape URLs to improve navigation stability and extensibility.
  • Continued aligning the properties shown in tooltips and legend with the underlying Grail data to ensure more consistent and reliable context.
  • Added node counts to the Visual resolution path legend to support faster interpretation at a glance.
  • Added context-aware empty state variants (with segment and timeframe support) and restyled existing error pages to provide clearer guidance and reduce ambiguity.
  • Automatically enabled visibility of resolved problems in the Problem graph when opened via intent or manually triggered to ensure investigations include relevant context.
  • Fixed the "limit reached" notification so it no longer triggers on every URL change, reducing unnecessary interruptions during navigation.
  • Fixed hardcoded SERVICE icons in the VRP edge tooltip.

Full version history

1.335.5

Summary

This release improves how you discover Smartscape updates, adds more control to the visual resolution path view, and aligns terminology and legends across views. It also refines isolation-related labeling, limit notifications, and permission error handling. Internal properties are no longer exposed in tooltips, and QUERY_GONE errors are now handled correctly for more robust behavior.

Changes

  • You can now open the latest release notes directly from the Smartscape app header; the release-notes button expands when there are updates you haven't seen yet.
  • The visual resolution path (VRP) analytics view now offers graph layout options and a switch to hide "other" nodes to help you focus within large VRPs.
  • Property names now match how they appear in Grail for better consistency across the platform.
  • Isolation-related button labels are now consistent across all views.
  • When opening a view which has reached it's limits, a toast notification is immediately shown, ensuring that you're aware that you're not seeing the full picture.
  • The VRP legend is now aligned with the view topology legend for a more consistent experience.
  • Permission error handling for the VRP view is improved.
  • Fixed an issue where internal properties were shown in tooltips.
  • Intents were refined and are now more consistent for clearer navigation and behavior.
  • QUERY_GONE errors are now correctly handled.

Full version history

1.334.0

Summary

This release makes Smartscape views easier to find, navigate, and understand. Global search now includes Smartscape views, in-context views are more flexible to open, and node type labels are more consistent across the app. We also expanded drilldown support for dt.smartscape.* fields, refined the Dynatrace Intelligence icon, and fixed several issues affecting subtitles and problem drilldowns.

Changes

  • Smartscape views are now discoverable via the global search.
  • You can now open in-context views (View topology and Visual resolution path) in a new browser tab directly from the Smartscape app.
  • Node type labels are further unified by removing plurals in legends, tooltips, subtitles, and overridden type names for more consistent wording.
  • The view topology drilldown now supports all keys that follow the dt.smartscape.* pattern.
  • The Dynatrace Intelligence icon has been visually improved across all views.
  • Fixed an issue where subtitle labels were missing in topology views.
  • Fixed the "view problem" drilldown that could enter a never-ending query loop when a display_id was used but not found.

Full version history

1.333.2

Summary

This release fixes an issue in the "view problem" drilldown that could cause an infinite query loop when a display_id is supplied but not found. The fix prevents the loop and improves drilldown reliability when navigating to problem details.

Changes

  • Fixes the "view problem" drilldown that could enter a never-ending query loop when a display_id is used but not found.
