OpenTelemetry (OTel) is an open source, vendor-neutral observability framework that supplies APIs, SDKs, and tools for the instrumentation of applications and services. As part of our ongoing commitment to OTel, we are excited to announce support for the ingestion and visualization of runtime metrics from OTel-instrumented applications in Java, .NET, and Go.
We are thrilled to announce that, for the third consecutive year, Datadog has been named a Leader in the 2023 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for APM and Observability. We believe that this placement reflects Datadog’s continued commitment to understanding our customers’ most complex challenges and building products and services that give them the visibility they need into their applications.
Whenever an event occurs on your Windows machine, the operating system records an event log that includes details about the nature of the event (e.g., critical runtime error) or security identifiers (for audit events). Windows event logs not only record system and application activity but also user actions and background processes, making them an invaluable tool for monitoring the security and health of your systems.
By storing copies of your content in geographically distributed servers, content delivery networks (CDNs) enable you to extend the reach of your app without sacrificing performance. CDNs lessen the demand on individual web hosts by increasing the number and regional spread of servers that are able to respond to incoming requests for cached content. As a result, they can deliver web content faster and provide a better experience for your end users.
When Kubernetes components like nodes, pods, or containers change state—for example, if a pod transitions from pending to running—they automatically generate objects called events to document the change. Events provide key information about the health and status of your clusters—for example, they inform you if container creations are failing, or if pods are being rescheduled again and again. Monitoring these events can help you troubleshoot issues affecting your infrastructure.
Twingate is a network access platform that enables customers to deploy a zero trust authentication layer with their infrastructure as code (IAC) provider of choice. Using this model, you can program strict access control rules that can be updated and co-deployed alongside changes to your infrastructure. Each time a user establishes or closes a connection to a resource, Twingate documents the event with details such as the port, the volume of data transferred, and user identification.
A foundational component of monitoring Google Cloud environments with Datadog is our Google Cloud Platform integration. This integration continuously collects metrics from all of your Google Cloud services and enriches them with tags, enabling you to scope dashboards and monitors to the relevant resources and seamlessly pivot across logs, metrics, and traces inside the Datadog platform.
NetFlow is a network protocol that enables devices to report key traffic flow data such as origin, direction, and overall volume.
GitLab is a DevSecOps platform that helps engineering teams automate software delivery. Using GitLab, teams can easily collaborate on projects and quickly deliver application code with robust CI/CD, security, and testing features. Datadog’s GitLab integration enables you to monitor your GitLab instances alongside the rest of your infrastructure by collecting GitLab metrics, logs, and service checks.
With the growing utilization of AI, modern business applications rely more and more on machine learning (ML) models. But the complexity of these models poses significant challenges to data scientists, engineers, and MLOps teams seeking to maintain and optimize performance.
