Diagnostics
Apart from automated problem detection, Dynatrace offers you a set of analysis tools that you can use to manually detect problems.
- CPU profiling highlights the biggest CPU consumers in your environment and allows you to drill down to the method level of a CPU problem.
- Memory dump analysis and Process crashes enable you to detect application crashes on Windows and Linux and analyze the core dumps of these crashes.
