Dynatrace Davis AI audit: root-cause attribution rate
One check on the analysis itself — what proportion of problems Davis attributed to a root cause, and where attribution is failing.

All 71 checks
What these checks read
Root-cause attribution rate
Problems raised in the window, how many carried a root cause, and which entity types the unattributed ones cluster in.
Why it matters
Davis is the reason a platform costs what it costs: the difference between an alert stream and a root cause. So the attribution rate is a reasonable proxy for whether the platform is doing the job it is priced for.
When the rate is low, the cause is almost never Davis. It is upstream: entity continuity broken by a detection rule, a service that exists as 400 versions, or coverage gaps that leave the dependency graph incomplete. The check reports the rate and the cluster of unattributed problems so the conversation can start at the real cause — which usually lives in the Topology or Coverage domain.
Questions we get about this domain
What is a good attribution rate?
There is no universal number, and any consultant who gives you one is guessing. What matters is the direction and the cluster: if unattributed problems concentrate on one entity type, that is a finding you can act on regardless of the headline percentage.
Does the audit change how Davis works?
No. It measures the outcome and points at the configuration upstream that shapes it.
