DevOps methodologies have become a huge staple of the Software Development Lifecycle. As such, more and more companies have been adopting the need for Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) tools. Building a successful CI/CD workflow can be a tedious process that requires your team to participate in a large amount of preparation and planning — but it doesn’t have to be that way.

As more environments run on Kubernetes—including our own— Datadog has been making it easier to get visibility into clusters of any scale. To minimize load on the Kubernetes API server, the Datadog Agent runs in two different modes.
