Anomaly detection on issues

When an unusual amount of issues have occured (for an entity) it would be good to assure this boils up somehow. I.e. if CPU usage or memory exhaustion happens more frequently than usual (on a host) the user should be able to be informed pro-active...

Convert "Smart Alert" into "Global Smart Alert" and vice versa

Sometimes Instana users own more than one application perspective. Suppose they already defined a smart alert on one ap and later want to apply the same configuration also on other ap(s). Then it would be helpful to have a button in the UI, that a...

Using smart alerts in Instana, we are currently able to define the absolute number of requests Impacted within the alerting condition (time threshold). See attachment 01 It is however in most cases much more relevant to set up a threshold for a to...

Could not find any Instana API to enable or disable all built-in/Custom events at once

Hi we are trying to disable all buit-in events at once and then enable few which we need for our infrastructure. Instead of walking through all existing events we found this would be more helpful to have an API to disbale/enable all events at once.

Specify multiple threshold values, to have different during day/night
