Synthetic statements, on the other hand, are those which require experience for the validation of their truth. Examples of analytic statements are “All bachelors are unmarried” and “A triangle has three sides”. While examples of synthetic statement include “It is raining outside” and “There are owls in Austria”.

This report compares performance and availability of an execution plan across different locations such as data centers and networks. You can select one or more execution plans running across different locations. The report is displayed in three tabs: Performance, Availability, and Details.

Synthetic monitoring relies on agents or some type of hardware or software to simulate actual user performance within a network or application. The Agents then exchange synthetic traffic between each other to measure network and application performance as if they were actual users.

Synthetic monitoring is an application performance monitoring practice that emulates the paths users might take when engaging with an application. Synthetic monitoring can automatically keep tabs on application uptime and tell you how your application responds to typical user behavior.

Step 1: Click on Create a browser monitor. Step 2: Install the Dynatrace Synthetic Recorder Chrome extension. This extension will help us in recording the click paths easily. Step 3: In the next step we provide a name for the monitor and the URL for the application or an endpoint that we plan to monitor.

A private Synthetic location is a location in your private network infrastructure where you install a Synthetic-enabled ActiveGate. You can execute synthetic monitors from such private locations to check the availability of internal resources.

Synthetic monitoring works by issuing automated, simulated transactions from a robot client to your application in order to mimic what a typical user might do. In this way, you get a steady, solid baseline on which to monitor server and application performance, 24/7, even during periods of low user engagement.

Browsers Synthetic Monitoring uses geographically distributed Synthetic Agents to continuously test key user workflows in your application. This allows you to monitor the correctness and performance of multi-step flows independently of the user-generated load.
