Three seconds is all it takes before your customer decides to leave. Would you imagine that! The audacity of some people! But, can you really blame them? We live in a fast-paced world. Wasting people’s time is worse than wasting their money. Developers are striving to provide value in as short of time as possible. Just as I am now writing this tutorial. I’m adamant about not wasting your time but providing you with concrete info for you to learn something new.

Datadog Synthetic private locations play a key role in your organization’s test infrastructure by serving as highly customizable points of presence (e.g., data centers, geographic locations) for running synthetic tests on internal services. You can deploy private locations using the orchestrator of your choice, enabling you to seamlessly roll them out and scale them with the rest of your container fleet.

Datadog Synthetic Monitoring allows you to proactively monitor your applications so that you can detect, troubleshoot, and resolve any availability or performance issues before they impact your end users. With our API test suite, you can send simulated HTTP requests to your API endpoints, check the validity of SSL certificates, verify the performance and correctness of DNS resolutions, test TCP connections, and ping endpoints to detect server connectivity issues.
