Apps versus Extensions

Apps

Compared to other Dynatrace platform functionality, Dynatrace apps are smaller, self-contained, and focused on specific use cases. But a Dynatrace app is not an isolated application: the Dynatrace platform implements an intent concept that allows interoperability between Dynatrace apps.

For more information, see AppEngine.

Extensions

With Extensions 2.0 you can declaratively bring metrics into Dynatrace that feed platform analytics and monitoring capabilities. Dynatrace links your data in a meaningful way so you can explore it, build instrumentation, and set up alerting.

You can manage your extensions with the Extensions app.

Add Hub subscriptions

Dynatrace can provide you with apps or releases specifically created and distributed to your environment.

In such cases, a Dynatrace representative will reach out to you and provide you with a subscription token that you need to add to your environment to enable a subscription to a specific app or release.

After you enable the subscription, your environment-specific app will be available to you in Dynatrace Hub, and you can manage it like any other app. You can set up multiple subscriptions, each for a different app/release, in this manner.

You need read and write access to settings to enable subscriptions. For more information, see Settings 2.0.

ALLOW settings:objects:read, settings:objects:write, settings:schemas:read
WHERE settings:schemaId = "builtin:hub-channel.subscriptions";
