Dynatrace with Redis Enterprise
To collect, view, and monitor metrics data from your databases and other cluster components, you can connect Dynatrace to your Redis Enterprise cluster using the Redis Dynatrace Integration.
Dynatrace is used by organizations of all sizes and across a wide range of industries to enable digital transformation and cloud migration, drive collaboration among development, operations, security and business teams, accelerate time to market for applications, reduce time to problem resolution, secure applications and infrastructure, understand user behavior, and track key business metrics.
The Dynatrace Integration for Redis Enterprise uses Prometheus remote write functionality to connect Prometheus data sources to Dynatrace. This integration enables Redis Enterprise users to export metrics to Dynatrace for analysis, and includes Redis-designed dashboards for use in monitoring Redis Enterprise clusters.
This integration makes it possible to:
- Collect and display metrics not available in the admin console
- Set up automatic alerts for node or cluster events
- Display these metrics alongside data from other systems

Install Redis' Dynatrace Integration for Redis Enterprise
At the present time the Dynatrace integration is not signed by Dynatrace, meaning that it will be necessary to download the source configuration and dashboards and assemble them and sign them cryptologically with a certificate that you have created. The instructions for this procedure can be found on the Dynatrace site. Please note that the instructions would have you place the dashboards next to the src folder; this is incorrect, the dashboards should be located inside the src folder.
View metrics
The Redis Enterprise Integration for Dynatrace contains pre-defined dashboards to aid in monitoring your Redis Enterprise deployment.
The following dashboards are currently available:
- Cluster: top-level statistics indicating the general health of the cluster
- Database: performance metrics at the database level
- Node: machine performance statistics
- Shard: low-level details of an individual shard
- Active-Active: replication and performance for geo-replicated clusters
- Proxy: network and command information regarding the proxy
- Proxy Threads: processor usage information regarding the proxy's component threads
Monitor metrics
Dynatrace dashboards can be filtered using the text area. For example, when viewing a cluster dashboard it is possible to filter the display to show data for only one cluster by typing 'cluster' in the text area and waiting for the system to retrieve the relevant data before choosing one of the options in the 'cluster' section.
Certain types of data do not know the name of the database from which they were drawn. The dashboard should have a list of database names and ids; use the id value when filtering input to the dashboard.
