If you run a cloud security program, two questions follow almost every security finding: Who owns this? And how important is it? Many security tools answer those questions with static metadata such as owner tags, business criticality labels, and manually maintained inventories of critical assets, known as crown jewels. But cloud environments aren’t static. Teams reorganize, services change hands, and dependencies evolve.

When designing effective error handling for React apps, the troubleshooting information you collect and display is critical. React errors can stem from a variety of causes, including user misconfiguration, backend and network issues, and mismatches in browser environments. Instrumenting your code to log critical context, including feature names, user data, and session activity, enables you to quickly identify where these errors originate.

Stripe Projects reduces the manual work of setting up, managing, and paying for third-party SaaS solutions. You can now use it to get started with Datadog in just two commands: If your Stripe account has a verified email address, running those commands in the Stripe CLI gives you a Datadog organization with a 14-day free trial and an automatically generated API key that is ready to use. You avoid email verification loops, tab-switching to copy an API key out of a dashboard, and lengthy sign-up forms.

Organizations are increasingly using multiple models to build AI agents in order to find the best balance of performance and cost for each agentic task and LLM call. As we discovered in the 2026 State of AI Engineering report, there isn’t currently a clear winner in terms of adoption among competing models and many organizations are keeping older models in flight despite frequent new releases.

Instrumenting a tech stack for distributed tracing is a complicated process that often takes weeks. For large fleets running services written in multiple languages, the timeline could be months. Every service needs a tracing library added, configured, and redeployed, and that work has to fit into each team’s release schedule. Datadog’s Single Step Instrumentation (SSI) cuts the time it takes to instrument your applications to send traces to Datadog APM down to minutes.

The recent announcement that OpenTelemetry (OTel) has achieved CNCF graduation further reinforces OTel’s credibility as the industry standard for vendor-neutral telemetry. As organizations increasingly adopt the OpenTelemetry Protocol (OTLP), the OTel Collector, and OTel SDKs, they need an observability platform that supports OTel-native data without sacrificing flexibility or portability.

Managing cloud, AI, and SaaS costs means answering a steady stream of questions from finance, leadership, and engineering teams. What changed? Which team owns the spend? Was an increase expected? Are we still on track against the budget? When each answer requires moving between dashboards, filtering cost data by team or service, or manually correlating billing data with observability data, it can slow down investigations while costs continue to rise.

In some organizations, high token counts have become a proxy for productivity. Some engineering teams are being pushed to max out context windows and wire in sprawling tool sets. More tokens can mean better agent reasoning and richer context during development, but token costs compound in production. Tokens accumulate across sessions, users, and tool calls in ways that are easy to overlook. Datadog’s 2026 State of AI Engineering report quantifies the scale of this problem.

As.NET Multi-platform App UI (MAUI) becomes the default cross-platform UI framework in the Microsoft ecosystem, many teams are standardizing on it to build mobile applications for iOS and Android. However, observability has not kept pace with the shift in adoption. Developers often rely on unsupported community bindings or maintain their own wrappers around native iOS and Android SDKs, which introduces instability and ongoing maintenance.

At hyperscale, a regional cloud outage is not merely a technical disruption—for Samsung Account, which serves 2.1 billion users across three global regions, it is an immediate global service crisis. Fragmented, region-siloed monitoring creates blind spots that make early detection nearly impossible, leaving SRE teams perpetually reactive rather than predictive. The path to proactive reliability requires both a philosophical shift and a foundational change in how observability data is collected, unified, and reasoned over.

Modernizing a legacy system serving 20 million devices without users noticing is like replacing a jet engine mid-flight. In this session, YoungJin Jung and Donggen Hong from LG U+ share their 18-month journey transforming a Telco-scale API Gateway from a rigid, proprietary solution into a high-performance, open-source architecture on AWS, and the operational challenges they solved along the way.

Replace "AI shipped on hope" with an operating model that holds up once real users depend on it. AI quality is multi-dimensional, covering accuracy, tone, safety, and faithfulness to user data, and can't be debugged from outputs alone. Without visibility into what their AI actually did in production, teams miss regressions, reverse-engineer chains by hand, and watch a single bad answer erode trust built over hundreds of right ones.

Every team is doing something with AI right now. What that something is, is an entirely different question. And whether that something is successful? Most teams are still figuring it out as they go.

AI coding tools are accelerating development velocity, creating a release challenge most teams aren’t equipped for. Without controlled rollout, higher change velocity makes it harder to know which specific release drove the results you’re seeing in production. And when teams use AI, to build AI – LLM apps and AI agents– complexity multiplies. Traditional observability can’t ensure AI agent quality, performance, and cost-efficiency at production scale.

AI coding assistants are rapidly evolving from passive copilots into active, agentic collaborators capable of planning, executing, and iterating on complex software tasks. This shift has huge ramifications onthe software development lifecycle (SDLC), developer productivity, and even the structure of engineering teams.

The way we build, ship, and run software is being reshaped by AI. In this fireside chat, Yanbing Li (CPO, Datadog) and Tom Occhino (CPO, Vercel) will discuss their perspectives on the impact AI is having across the industry and what it means for teams navigating this shift today.

AI’s ability to write code made huge strides over the past year. Today, coding agents aren’t just assisting developers; they are winning the "coding race" by orders of magnitude and fundamentally changing the way engineers work.

The breakthroughs in AI today aren’t just coming from bigger datasets and more compute; Reinforcement Learning (RL) has quietly become one of the most powerful forces in modern AI development. RL is teaching models to reason and self-correct, enabling capabilities that make AGI feel less like science fiction and more like an inevitable future.

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.
