At Datadog, we believe that having visibility into production is crucial to building better software, especially as modern environments become more and more complex.

Observability vs monitoring, what is the difference? Monitoring is the what to observability’s why. Here we dig into the differences.

We all know that the history data is important in monitoring. But this history data becomes obsolete over time and those records become garbage which would only fill up space. So it is important to remove obsolete history records to free up space. We call this process housekeeping. This needs to be performed periodically to cleanup the history records whenever they exceed their maximum age and become obsolete.

Let’s face it—the harsh reality, seen often in news stories today, is that security breaches are going to happen.
