Datadog runs thousands of internal services and has been increasing global footprint year after year. For most of that growth, we treated services uniformly when making deployment and reliability decisions. At our current scale, that approach became expensive. A change destined for production rolls out to data centers sequentially, so deployment time grows with every data center we add.

Organizations may need to keep data in specific regions or infrastructure they control, whether because of data residency requirements, internal policies, or transfer costs. Datadog Bring Your Own Cloud (BYOC) extends the Datadog platform into those environments. Each BYOC deployment runs as a Kubernetes cluster with its own object storage, keeping data close to its source.

Adding or renaming a product event has traditionally meant creating an engineering ticket. Datadog Product Analytics uses the same SDKs and configuration as Real User Monitoring (RUM), and those SDKs autocapture actions such as clicks and taps. But an automatically generated action name describes the element rather than the user intent behind it.

Earlier this year, Datadog for Government achieved FedRAMP High certification, extending our GovCloud environment (US1-FED) to the federal government’s most sensitive civilian workloads. That certification now covers Datadog Incident Response, bringing paging, incident coordination, automation, and postmortem workflows into US1-FED. When a government system goes down, responders need to reach the right people, coordinate a fix, and keep stakeholders informed.

AI-assisted development can increase the rate at which teams produce code, but teams only realize those velocity gains if CI can keep pace. More pull requests (PRs) mean more builds, tests, and pipeline executions. Slow jobs leave developers and coding agents waiting for feedback, flaky failures consume time in reruns and investigations, and unnecessary test execution increases runner demand as delivery volume grows.

Earlier in this series, we covered key metrics for monitoring performance in Databricks and discussed Databricks’ native resources for accessing those metrics and other key observability data, such as logs and data lineage. In this post, we’ll cover using the Databricks integration to bring that data into Datadog and monitor your Databricks analytics and AI/ML workloads alongside the rest of your end-to-end data pipelines and distributed infrastructure. We’ll show you how to.

In the first part of this series, we cataloged key metrics for Databricks data engineering, analytics, and Model Serving workloads. In this post, we’ll discuss how to collect those metrics and other telemetry data from Databricks and Apache Spark, which powers Databricks under the hood. We’ll cover collecting and querying telemetry data via system tables, as well as the other primary sources of visibility into.

You get a Slack message from the VP of Sales: They have asked an AI agent connected to Snowflake for the past quarter’s revenue and the numbers look wrong. First, you verify the agent’s query and, when that looks fine, check the pipelines that populate the underlying table. All jobs completed, the data is recently refreshed. Then it’s time to check the logs for errors. Nothing.

Many revenue-critical interactions, such as ecommerce checkouts and customer portals, run on Shopify and Salesforce. But engineering teams have less control over the frontend runtime on these platforms, and this lack of control can make user monitoring difficult to implement and maintain. These monitoring limitations can leave gaps in visibility across important parts of the user journey.

Incident response often spans a patchwork of tools, handoffs, and manual steps. An engineer gets paged, a team investigates the issue, the incident commander coordinates the response, SREs document decisions, and somebody (anybody!) writes the postmortem. Every handoff introduces more context switching, increasing the risk of critical information loss, and ultimately slowing resolution.

When production breaks, the clues are everywhere but the story is scattered. RUM sessions, APM traces, metrics, and logs allow Datadog to tell you part of the story. What’s missing is your service ownership quirks, your team's conventions, or the three-year-old workaround buried in a comment that explains why a certain endpoint behaves the way it does.

Senior engineers are the pillars of SRE programs—not only do they have the leadership to manage incidents well, they also have the tribal knowledge to understand the technical causes of tricky issues. But when the know-how is confined to a few individuals, it greatly limits the effectiveness of your SRE team.

AI is generating code at 10x human speed, but we’re not shipping software 10x faster. Agents have a quality problem, and we still can’t trust their output without validation. Breaking the code review model didn’t help. So what would it take to autonomously ship code that’s actually trustworthy? Join us to explore what an agentic harness looks like when the SDLC is the harness, a validation system that spans intent, CI, staging, and production, with context flowing bidirectionally between all stages.

Missing JMX metrics make it hard to know what’s happening in a Java application, especially when vague errors or configuration mismatches make the cause difficult to diagnose. In this video, you’ll see how to troubleshoot common JMX metric collection issues and isolate the cause in less time.

See how Bits Chat turns a natural-language request into an automated incident response workflow. In this demo, Bits Chat builds a workflow that investigates a monitor alert, identifies whether a recent deployment caused the issue, rolls it back when appropriate, and sends a summary to Slack.

Datadog Bits Agent Builder lets you build AI agents that use your observability data to automate operational tasks. In this walkthrough, see how to build an agent that analyzes monitor and alert activity, identifies patterns, and provides actionable recommendations to improve your monitoring strategy. With Bits Agent Builder, you can give agents access to Datadog data and tools, customize their instructions and models, and run them automatically to continuously analyze and act on your environment.

Adding metadata to Software Catalog entities manually is a tedious process that doesn’t scale as your service count grows. This video shows you how to automate that work with Terraform so you can add shared metadata across existing Software Catalog entities at scale.

The elasticity and nearly infinite scalability of the cloud have transformed IT infrastructure. Modern infrastructure is now made up of constantly changing, often short-lived VMs or containers. This has elevated the need for new methods and new tools for monitoring. In this eBook, we outline an effective framework for monitoring modern infrastructure and applications, however large or dynamic they may be.
