Active Directory Monitoring and Tracing

Allow to alert only on new, unique errors

For front-end browser errors in particular, it would be very helpful to receive alerts for new errors, which are unique based on their error message and source code position. Instana already contains the concept of unique JavaScript errors based o...

System Capacity filter

Previously I can setup filesystem capacity event alert with "entity.host.filesystems.fs.name" filter under scope. Unfortunately this filter has been obsoleted and Instana introduced NO alternative solution to this. Instana support advised to confi...

Log message body information sent via OpenTelemetry

Forwarding Golang and Nodejs application logs which are deployed in Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service to Instana agent or Instana backend via fluentbit using OpenTelemetry exporter
