Nobody will dispute that a common goal of DevOps pros and SREs, and really any company today, is to delight their customers more by disappointing them less. This was the theme of a recent live webinar focused on announcing a new game-changing partnership between Datadog and Moogsoft. The live session combined remarks by Moogsoft CEO Phil Tee and CTO Dave Casper on bringing together the best of these two technologies with a new seamless integration.

Thursday morning, and I’ve done some yoga, a ten-minute meditation and am at my desk in my hastily thrown up garden office with a mug of green tea by 08:30am. I’m really not missing the commute to our old HQ (now permanently closed, thanks to the pandemic) in the heart of Seattle and am enjoying an extra few minutes in bed and getting mindful before logging in.

Context is king, they say, and anything you can do to improve context both makes decisions and assessments more reliable and speeds up the decision process. A new, bi-directional integration between Moogsoft Observability Cloud and Datadog does just that. Many SRE teams rely on Datadog to provide comprehensive information about their application stacks.
