Have ability to set scope as per endpoint for adaptive threshold type

We have observed that when threshold type is adaptive the scope cannot be set to per endpoint, however the option is available when threshold type is static.

Need this feature to be available in Instana as it is supported in AppDynamics. This will facilitate better monitoring and troubleshooting.

    Mate - Not sure why this doesn't align with you strategy. While I understand bandwidth constraints and this feature taking time. If this is not aligned to your strategy this is a serious gap in your product.

    Thank you for taking the time to submit the idea!

    As you know, services and endpoints within Instana are considered ephemeral / short-lived.

    For the services that you are monitoring for which you desire to have individual alerts per endpoint for adaptive threshold, could you share insights on the following:

    • Of all the services you're monitoring using Instana, what percentage of services and their endpoints tend to be long-lived (i.e. they more-or-less consistently receive calls)?

    • Amongst those services, how many long-lived endpoints are there? Min? Max? Total?
