Which principle is not a part of the reasons to use an ActiveGate?

The principle of increasing virtualization capabilities is not typically associated with the primary reasons to use an ActiveGate. ActiveGates serve different functions primarily related to monitoring and data processing rather than expanding virtualization features.

ActiveGates act as a communication bridge between the Dynatrace environment and the monitored infrastructure, especially when dealing with complex networking setups, cloud environments, or private networks. Their key benefits include capturing agentless Real User Monitoring (RUM), which allows for the monitoring of web applications without needing to install agents on every client device and also enhances monitoring across various environments, ensuring a unified approach regardless of where services are deployed. Additionally, ActiveGates help in optimizing network bandwidth by processing data locally and reducing the amount of information that needs to be sent over the network to the Dynatrace servers, which contributes to improved performance and lower latency.

Thus, while virtualization capabilities might be a consideration in broader infrastructure contexts, they do not encapsulate the essential purposes and advantages of employing ActiveGates in the Dynatrace monitoring ecosystem.
