AWS re:Invent Roundup: Private 5G | Graviton3 ARM Chips | DevOps Guru++
In this week’s The Long View: Three things that caught my eye from Amazon Web Services’ re:Invent conference. Private 5G, Graviton3 chips, and something called DevOps Guru for RDS (yes, really).

How to Build a Team That Embraces Metrics
When we talk about metrics in software delivery, a lot of developers think of execution metrics — things like throughput, delivery and number of deploys. But in reality, those metrics don’t motivate anyone — at least not without connecting them to a bigger picture. I’ve worked in software for 23 years. I’m a three-time founder […]

Cracking Production Performance Issues With Open Source Observability
I would like to share a recent case study on our organization, Logz.io, which battled a very serious performance issue, the solution for which turned out to be a small change in code but with a huge impact on all of our HTTP endpoints in our platform. Among other topics, I’ll cover: How we investigated […]

Monitoring In the Cloud
In the 10 years since Amazon Web Services (AWS) began offering cloud computing services to the world, the nature of IT infrastructure has changed dramatically. The cloud has transformed the economics of infrastructure, essentially crumbling the barrier to entry for building applications on world-class technology. It has brought about a fundamental change on the operations […]

Monitoring Modern Infrastructure
In the past several years, the nature of IT infrastructure has changed dramatically. Countless organizations have migrated away from traditional use of data centers to take advantage of the agility and scalability afforded by public and private cloud infrastructure. For new organizations, architecting applications for the cloud is now the default. The cloud has effectively […]

To learn more, download […]

Healthcare & Life Sciences
Modernization efforts are transforming the healthcare and life sciences industries, with companies automating workflows like appointment scheduling and patient surveys and digitizing operations with electronic health records (EHRs). As healthcare and life sciences firms adopt more complex technologies and increasingly rely on cloud-based infrastructure, Datadog enables them to optimize their cloud deployments and gain real-time […]

Hybrid Cloud Monitoring
Adopting a multi-cloud or hybrid cloud architecture allows organizations to improve resilience and maintain control over their applications and data. But it can also create blind spots, as teams have to rely on separate legacy tools or cloud-provider consoles to get visibility into each environment individually. Datadog unifies metrics, traces, logs, network performance data, and […]

Datadog for IoT Monitoring
From manufacturing to retail, Internet of Things (IoT) devices are enabling organizations across many industries to improve their operations and offer differentiated customer experiences. However, operating a large fleet of connected, geographically-distributed devices poses a significant challenge. Devices often exist in hostile environments and need connections to applications running in on-premise or cloud data centers […]

Manufacturing & Logistics
As manufacturing and logistics companies increasingly automate workflows and deploy connected digital assets, their IT footprint becomes more dynamic and distributed. Datadog enables these firms to gain real-time insight into the health and performance of all their digital assets, bringing together data from disparate applications, physical devices, and operational platforms in a single pane of […]

Media & Entertainment
Successful media sites rely on complex, highly scalable infrastructure to ensure that requests can be served in mere milliseconds—and prevent the delays that lead to viewer exits. Ensuring the health and performance of that infrastructure requires visibility into dynamic, multi-faceted systems including content delivery networks, data stores, and application code. Datadog brings together data on […]

Monitoring Consolidation
In many organizations, technical teams operate their own separate systems to monitor the services or infrastructure they manage. Without a single source of truth, organizations are then unable to track the interactions between separate components, or to effectively troubleshoot issues that involve multiple teams and their interdependent services. Datadog brings together all the performance data […]

How MoneySupermarket drives cloud cost efficiency with performance monitoring

Take Infrastructure Modeling to the Next Level
IT infrastructure has never been simple. But at least it all used to be in one place. Today, the reality that DevOps and SRE teams face is a sprawling network of complex systems and changing environments. And here’s the rub: This increasingly complex infrastructure is now more critical to business success than it’s ever been […]

Why DevOps Teams Lack Visibility in Distributed Events
The way teams deliver and operate software has evolved rapidly over the past decade. As a result, the surface area that IT operators have to manage is expanding just as quickly—in size and complexity.

For some, it’s about staying competitive in the face of ever-increasing customer expectations. For others, it’s about being the disruptor in rapidly changing marketplaces flooded with new entrants. But no matter what industry you’re in, […]

DevOps Done Right
Your team has embraced DevOps. You’re establishing new processes, adopting new tools, and forming a culture that emphasizes cross-functional collaboration. But you haven’t yet reached maximum velocity. There’s something missing, something that’s keeping your organization from truly becoming a highperforming DevOps machine. Often that missing piece is measurement of data. Although measurement is one of […]
