This new release of the Dynatrace Backstage plugin brings two great enhancements:

✨ To enable developers to configure custom queries, this release allows the definition of custom queries within the catalog-info.yaml file of a Backstage entity. Besides, limiting the environments to query data is possible if multi-environment is used. Documentation of this new capability is provided here.

💫 To pull validations from the Site Reliability Guardian, just reference a guardian by its tags in the catalog-info.yaml. Find an example of such a configuration here.

Context-rich observability and security insights at hand - While developers know how their service behaves in a development or sandbox environment, they miss insights about the service performance during the staging process and in production. The Dynatrace Backstage plugins enable developers to fetch observability and security data from Dynatrace to be displayed at software components managed in the Backstage Software Catalog. The data is in tabular format with smart links to Dynatrace Apps for deeper analysis and root cause investigation in case of a related problem or security vulnerability.

The Backstage Dynatrace plugins provide a couple of customization features for different requirements. Details of those features are provided here.

Multi-environment support: Connect multiple Dynatrace environments with the Backstage Dynatrace plugins to display data from multiple Dynatrace environments. A common use case is the separation in pre-production and production monitoring with different Dynatrace environments.

🚀 Kubernetes Use Case: The Backstage Dynatrace plugins support Kubernetes entities by default with a pre-configured query for Kubernetes deployments and a dedicated component for data representation.

💫 Custom Queries: Provide any custom DQL query to fetch data from Dynatrace and display it in a tabular format. Single-value results are not supported.

🎊 Backlink to Dynatrace: Enrich your DQL query with smart deep links to guide the Backstage user to Dynatrace for deeper observability and security analysis.
