Get more value out of your Cortex catalog with our MCP prompt library

You've set up the Cortex MCP and connected it to your AI assistant and IDE. You ask about service ownership, check a Scorecard or two, and it works. You're impressed by how much faster this is than clicking through the web UI. Now you're wondering what else you can do with it. I'm willing to bet we've hit a nerve with that "hypothetical" scenario. The Cortex MCP works exactly as designed, but it's deceptively difficult to know which questions to ask and when to ask them.

A better way to monitor your AI agents in .NET apps

We launched agent monitoring earlier this year, allowing our users to instrument LLM usage and tool calls in their applications. However, we only had Agent Monitoring support for Python and JavaScript. We’ve been working on creating an Agent Monitoring SDK for.NET — specifically for Microsoft.Extensions.AI.Abstractions.

This Month in Datadog - December 2025

For our last episode of 2025, we’re focusing on Datadog releases announced at AWS re:Invent. Join Jeremy to see how you can manage logs at petabyte scale in your infrastructure, eliminate unneeded costs in Amazon S3 buckets, build agentic workflows, and detect credential leaks. Later in the episode, Scott spotlights how you can connect your AI agents to Datadog tools and context with our MCP Server.

Highlights from AWS re:Invent 2025: Making sense of applied AI, trust, and going faster

After four days of AWS re:Invent—a 65,000-step marathon that included 60,000 attendees spread across five Las Vegas campuses—and navigating the latest installment of this 13-year-old cloud pilgrimage, we’re all a little dehydrated but significantly wiser. The volume of announcements felt less like a single flood and more like a river branching into three powerful currents. Making sense of this massive technological convergence requires zooming out.

The War Room of AI Agents: Why the Future of AI SRE is Multi-Agent Orchestration

We’ve all been there. It’s 2 AM, your phone is buzzing with alerts, and you’re suddenly thrust into an incident war room with a dozen other bleary-eyed engineers. The production environment is on fire, customers are affected, and everyone’s trying to piece together what went wrong. But here’s what makes these moments fascinating from a systems perspective – it’s rarely just one person silently fixing the issue in isolation.
