Cloudflare's Resolver Outage: More Than Just DNS

“It’s always DNS.” That’s the running joke in IT. When websites won’t load and apps grind to a halt, DNS—the internet’s address book—is often the first to get blamed. That’s because DNS translates human-friendly names like google.com into IP addresses that computers use to route traffic.

FinOps For AI: How Crawl, Walk, Run Works For Managing AI Costs

“It started as an experiment.” That’s how it begins at most companies. A small team spins up a few GPU instances to train a proof-of-concept model. Maybe it’s a fraud detection algorithm. Maybe it’s GenAI for support tickets. Either way, it’s just a test. Then the results come in, and they’re promising. Suddenly, that model is powering new features. Teams are fine-tuning LLMs in parallel.

Failure to do so results in real impact to customer satisfaction, trust, and loyalty. Modern banking applications are increasingly complex, running off of internet-centric distributed architectures involving many different parties and services. For these modern tech frameworks, traditional APM tools are no longer sufficient to ensure service reliability and optimal customer experience.

If your site is slow, it might as well be down.

It’s no longer enough for a site to just be available; it had to be fast. If the experience lags, your customers will bounce within seconds. The consequences scale fast: business stops and revenue disappears. You need to monitor performance across the full delivery chain because speed is what keeps users engaged.

Smarter Workflows, Faster Insights: How InfluxDB 3 Unlocks the Power of Python at the Source

Businesses across industries rely on time-stamped data to track system health, monitor performance, and improve operations. Whether it’s sensors on a factory floor or usage logs from a SaaS platform, time series data reveals how things change. As businesses digitize operations and add connected devices, sensors produce growing streams of time-based data. This opens the door to faster analytics and smarter automation. But legacy approaches can’t keep up.

Monitor agents built on Amazon Bedrock with Datadog LLM Observability

As large language models (LLMs) grow more powerful, organizations are deploying agentic AI applications to tackle complex, multi-step tasks. With Amazon Bedrock Agents, developers can orchestrate these agents to manage tasks such as triggering serverless functions, calling APIs, accessing knowledge bases, and maintaining contextual conversations—all while breaking down complex user requests or tasks into manageable steps.

Proactively troubleshoot with synthetic testing and distributed tracing

As your application grows in complexity, identifying the root cause of issues becomes increasingly difficult. Many monitoring strategies make this even harder by siloing frontend and backend data. To effectively troubleshoot problems that spread across your app, you need visibility not just into each part of your stack, but also into how these parts interact.
