Observability platforms are becoming essential as the complexity of cloud-native architectures increases. But by 2015, it was more common to split up monolithic applications into distributed systems. For observability that scales with cloud-native technologies, organizations need an AI-driven observability platform like Dynatrace.

Multiple queries run at the same time will be using different threads and will utilize more than one CPU core. With faster disks (i.e. SSD) we can’t utilize the full potential of IOPS with just one thread.
