Infra structure visability
I get a lot of questions about infrastructure visability in Dynatrace, e.q. load balancer, firewall or router. I do not see many plugins for this so I presume I have to use ssh, ping or snmp monitors. Is it possible to draw (add) these in the transaction overview, or can I create a infra dashlet?

You are correct. Right now you need to use the plugins that we have to capture data from system components (load balancers, ...) that do not have an agent injected. We have a lot of plugins availalbe for many of the most common infrastructure service components. Whats not possible in the moment is to draw these components in the Transaction Flow. Only tiers where we have agents injected as well as some special tiers (Database, Message Queues, External Web Services, ... ) are visualized
If you let the community know what types of infrastructure components you want to monitor I am sure you get some feedback from folks that implemented this already
