Data Captured on Purepath - Sampling
Hello All!
Could you help me to figure out which is the sampling setting used by default on Dynatrace 6.0 ?
I am looking at the purepath data generated and I observe that I have missing information (ex: 1 webservice call per record inserted, ran for 10k records, only 54 webservice calls?)
Thank you in advance!
Regards
Thank you Richard!
Appreciate the help!
Due to the sampling nature of our auto sensor technology multiple successive calls may represent themselves as one call. This is the trade-off for a hard instrumentation (custom sensor) on those calls, which would provide drastic overhead. If you want to know performance by something like record numbers, you would need to use instrumentation to capture that number, then use Business Transactions to capture that context information and return it to you in a way that makes sense for monitoring. I recommend the following links to help you here:
- The "Accessor" part of Sensor Configuration#MethodRules
- This video is a pretty straightforward walkthrough http://apmu.dynatrace.com/index.php?category_id=608&course_id=724&mod_id=15627
Hope that helps,
Rick B
