Hi,

I would like to know if anyone has compared DynaTrace and the TPTP stack -
they look quite similar - is DynaTrace a contributor to TPTP? If so, why
do they have a proprietary product?

Does DynaTrace use portions of TPTP?

Hi Joe

Good questions - here are some answers.
dynaTrace is not using or contributing to TPTP. TPTP is a platform for Performance Testing, Tracing and Profiling. There are some sample implementations that come with TPTP and I am sure there are others out there that build their solution on top of TPTP.
dynaTrace however has several unique features that differentiate it from TPTP and that also doesn't allow us to extend TPTP. Most of these unique features can be explored on our web site http://www.dynatrace.com or through our two minute explainer (http://www.dynatrace.com/twominutedemo)
Here are some highlights
a) full end-to-end transactional tracing across Java & .NET Runtime boundaries. If you call to other processes via RMI, SOAP, REST, JMS, ... dynaTrace can follow these transactions from end-to-end
b) Many of our clients use us in 24x7 production and high-load environments with very low overhead but still capturing EVERY SINGLE transaction. You would never use a profiler in production - but you can use dynaTrace
c) along the execution path we capture additional contextual information like method arguments, sql statements, exceptions, log messages, remoting calls, ...
d) dynaTrace is one solultion for all lifecycle stages: development, testing and production
e) ...

Even though some aspects of dynaTrace and TPTP look similar - the differences are huge. Let me know if you have additional questions and I am happy to answer them. Also check out our blog - http://blog.dynatrace.com - here you can find different examples of how dynaTrace can help with application performance management for different technologies and in different lifecycle stages
