How does Dynatrace monitor database statements for execution statistics?

Dynatrace effectively monitors database statements by tracking the processes that make database calls. This approach allows Dynatrace to gather comprehensive execution statistics, which are critical for understanding the performance and impact of database interactions within applications.

By focusing on the processes, Dynatrace can link database activity to application response times, transaction traces, and overall system performance. This enables developers and operators to identify bottlenecks, optimize queries, and improve the reliability of applications.

Monitoring the processes rather than just the SQL queries or relying solely on external logs provides a more integrated and in-depth view of how database interactions affect the overall application performance. Consequently, this holistic approach helps in proactively managing performance issues and ensuring that applications run smoothly.
