Datadog Real User Monitoring (RUM) provides end-to-end visibility into the user experience and performance of your browser and mobile applications. RUM allows you to capture and retain complete user sessions for 30 days. This means you can pinpoint bugs, prioritize issues, and determine fixes with data collected across an entire quarter.
Properly testing a service’s APIs to ensure that it can handle production traffic presents many challenges for engineers—SREs need to guarantee the resiliency of their application, while developers must ensure that their features perform well at any given scale. Speedscale is a testing framework built for Kubernetes applications that enables you to load test with real-world production scenarios by replaying actual API traffic that your application has experienced.
Monitoring HTTP sessions offers a potentially powerful way to gain visibility into your web servers, but in practice, doing so can be complex and resource-intensive. Extended Berkeley Packet Filter (eBPF) technology allows you to overcome these challenges, giving you a simple and efficient way to process application-layer traffic for your troubleshooting needs.
In 2021, we partnered with AWS to develop the Datadog Lambda extension which provides a simple, cost-effective way for teams to collect traces, logs, custom metrics, and enhanced metrics from Lambda functions and submit them to Datadog.
