    we have a rather large fleet 1000+ Queue Managers that are part of our ITCAM monitoring/alerting.

    being able to swap in a INStana as a replacement for ITCAM would be ideal provided Instana supports the above mention fields.

    otherwise Instana will need to compete with other Otel enable tools such as Elastic.
