We are thrilled to announce that Datadog has been named a Leader in the Forrester Wave: AIOps Platforms, Q2 2025. We believe this placement reflects Datadog’s commitment to offering an AI-driven platform that enables customers to observe and secure systems, orient teams, and take action in one place. Datadog sits within your most critical workflows, processing trillions of telemetry data points every hour through your alerts, service maps, teams, on-call schedules, and more.

Risk assessment requires context. One of the primary challenges with protecting cloud environments is understanding how certain activity can lead to risk. Risky behavior can be categorized as any activity or action that increases the likelihood of an attack in your cloud environment. While certain activity may not be malicious on its own, it can expand an environment’s attack surface or indicate post-compromise behavior.

Modern code profilers gather performance data that is highly useful for developers, but the traditional presentation of that data can be challenging to interpret for engineers who are new to profiling. For the Continuous Profiler team at Datadog, our guiding mission is to make profiling a standard practice for all developers by flattening its learning curve and helping teams quickly gain insights into application performance.

Blind spots in frontend monitoring can occur when you’re managing complex modern applications. Browser and device variability, user journeys with intricate workflows and multiple touchpoints, and ephemeral frontend components can all create visibility gaps that make it difficult to identify, understand, and resolve the issues impacting user experience.

Engineering teams constantly balance the need for speed and standardization, but achieving both goals at the same time often feels impossible. Developers’ dependence on platform engineers for support with infrastructure and tooling can create bottlenecks for routine operational tasks such as provisioning environments, troubleshooting incidents, and managing deployments.
