Monitoring backend signals has been standard practice for years, and tech companies have been alerting their SRE and software engineers when API endpoints are failing. But when you’re alerted about a backend issue, it’s often your end users who are directly affected. Shouldn’t we observe and alert on this user experience issues early on? As frontend monitoring is a newer practice, companies often struggle to identify signals that can help them pinpoint user frustrations or performance problems.

In 2018 Datadog released Watchdog to proactively detect anomalies on your observability data. But what defines an anomaly? How do you avoid false positives? At Datadog Summit London 2024, Nils Bunge, product manager at Datadog, shared the story of the creation of the first Datadog AI feature (Watchdog Alert), what we learned from it and how we applied those lessons to all the added AI functionalities across the years.

On This Month in Datadog, we’re covering Datadog Security for Google Cloud, our integration with NVIDIA Triton Inference Server, and Sankey visualizations, which offer overviews of common paths users take across your app.

There are many different ways to implement Site Reliability Engineering (SRE). From team structures to roles and responsibilities to planning and prioritization flows, there’s no golden path for how to organize things.

With over 22,000 customers sending trillions of data points each day, keeping Datadog reliable is critical to our business.
