Metric Type

There are two types of metrics that can be sent to Dynatrace:

• Gauge - A gauge is a metric that represents a single numerical value that can arbitrarily go up and down. For example, current percentage of the CPU usage.

• Counters - A counter is a metric that is continuously increasing. For example, the number of bytes received over a network interface since the start of the process.
