How often does a managed cluster perform updates?

A managed cluster in Dynatrace performs updates every 4 weeks. This schedule is designed to ensure that users receive regular updates, which typically include new features, bug fixes, and performance enhancements. Frequent updates help maintain the health and security of the cluster while ensuring that users benefit from the latest improvements and capabilities that Dynatrace offers.

The choice of a 4-week interval strikes a balance between providing timely updates and allowing enough time for thorough testing and validation of new features before they are deployed. This regular update cadence helps organizations keep their monitoring environment current without overwhelming their operations with too frequent changes.

This structured approach to updates is beneficial because it allows system administrators to plan for maintenance windows and minimizes potential disruptions that might arise from unexpected changes or instability in system behavior. The other choices suggest different update frequencies that do not align with Dynatrace's established policy for managed clusters.
