This leading enterprise in the retail market did not have a dedicated monitoring team, therefore their MTTRs took days to resolve.
The client had Dynatrace, therefore, they could see the errors or flaws in the middleware, but they were not able to identify why they were failing. The middleware acted as a bridge or intermediary in the communication of different systems, applications, and devices.
Also, the productive operation did not have the capacity to address that level of detail. This caused both the volume and functional tests to stop during the incident period, therefore the releases to production were delayed.
The client needed dedicated personnel to monitor and attend Dynatrace in the components that would help find the flaws and allow advancements in functional tests, and not become an obstacle for production releases.
Because of this, Getecsa entered the project with the intention of identifying the root cause of the problem to solve it in the least amount of time.
We implemented Dynatrace with the right licensing that was missing before. With this in mind, we applied permanent monitoring in the broker servers and later applied proactive attention to incidents. We also integrated critical alerts in the archival systems with Jira, and additional alerts that were integrated in Google Chat to notify teams.
Thanks to Getecsa’s solution, we achieved a 92% time reduction of problem resolution in Dynatrace. Therefore, the production team was able to focus their energy in continuing their tests, while the dedicated personnel for observability found the faults to address.
This situation went from being the client’s main issue to becoming just another simple task. Now, they look for Getecsa to solve their issues in a timely manner, even to document their operative fluxes.
Observability can identify the degradation of components before it affects services or the client.
