If you enable process collection, Datadog autodetects technologies running on your hosts. Any Datadog integrations corresponding to these technologies are then surfaced and displayed at the top of the in-app integrations configuration page. With this process, it’s even easier to get integrations up and running quickly, since you don’t have to remember which technologies are installed on which hosts. Datadog even highlights gaps in coverage if an integration is installed on some, but not all, of the relevant hosts. Remember: autodetection does not mean autoinstallation; follow the installation instructions on each integration tile to install as needed.
