To fully grasp the significance of Dynatrace OpenPipeline, it is crucial to understand that it is not merely an incremental feature or another button to click within the user interface. Its introduction represents a fundamental strategic pivot for the entire Dynatrace platform. Historically, Dynatrace has been recognized as a best-in-class observability solution, a destination for the high-fidelity data collected by its proprietary OneAgent. OpenPipeline transforms this paradigm. It evolves Dynatrace from a destination for observability data into the definitive control plane for all enterprise data.
