When Turbo lists “vCenter” as the source, I would like the specific vCenter noted – similar to how it lists cloud accounts.

When having multiple vCenter's this will help the client specifically identify which vCenter Turbo is recommending actions for.

Turbo should not recommend Disk Size changes for Azure HyperScale DBs - they autoscale.

bad actions reduce faith in the product and waste time. This is distracting the customer for really good actions - like HyperScale scaling.

Enable a manual override to stop failing actions in the queue

Currently if there is an issue with permissions or a policy conflict, actions that were manually executed will continue to retry (appears to be indefinitely?) There should be a way to cancel that action so that the logs aren't filled with one-time...

Add list of groups to bottom of Details page

When viewing a virtual machine or database server the details page has a list of policies at the bottom of it so you can see what's applicable. It would be handy to also see a list of group memberships since all policies are tied to a group and it...

Enable a toggle feature to be able to execute actions in a more granular way for Database Server recommendations

Currently recommendations for RDS may have three distinct changes: Instance type, instance size, storage type. In cases where one or two of the recommendations don't make sense, allow a toggle to disable that recommendation (either on the action d...

Add a link/button from Instana dashboards to our documentation with the context

We can’t fix all possible issues that may happen in customer environments. But we can add a link/button pointing to our documentation from the service dashboards. For example, when we discover an postgres database service, but it shows no calls or...

Instana UI usable in iframe

We want to make certain alerts and metrics for our call readiness visible in a mobile app. Currently, the integration via iframe does not seem to be possible due to the frame-option setting. Can frame-option be configured by customer?

Azure HyperScale DBs have read-only replicas which are very expensive. Can Turbo provide recommendations for the number of these?

Azure HyperScale Databases have the option for read-only replicas. These can cost $1000+/mo in addition to the cost of the main db. Is there a way that Turbo can recommend how many of these read-only replicas are needed to maintain performance but...

Call tag values always treated as String

Our implementation of tracking flows into Db2 for z/OS via JDBC , the Db2 for z/OS and Z Common Data Provider are required. Once installed and configured, we provide metrics (such as cpu_time, smf_id, io_wait, subsystem_id, elapsed_time, lock_wait...
