Tool
Datadog is a cloud monitoring and observability platform for collecting and analyzing metrics, traces, logs, and related data across infrastructure, applications, networks, containers, databases, and cloud environments. It provides infrastructure monitoring, application performance monitoring, log management, dashboards, alerting, incident management, security monitoring, synthetic monitoring, and user-experience monitoring. The platform is used to identify broken or correlated systems and investigate operational issues, although the video notes that observability alone does not necessarily establish root cause. Datadog also offers AI features, including investigation, remediation, agent observability, and an MCP server.
