Failure analysis of database errors

In response to your feedback, Dynatrace now enables you to analyze the reasons behind database errors.

The failure rate chart on each database Services page now features a View details of failures button. In the example service shown below, note the high failure rate (3.11%). The Modification method is listed in both the Requests with highest failure rate list and the Most time consuming requests list. Click the  Modification method to see why this method’s requests are failing.
