Monitoring AWS Lambda functions with Datadog

The “serverless” movement is taking the industry by storm and now, with Datadog, you can start monitoring your serverless applications and functions on AWS Lambda. As soon as you enable the Lambda integration, you’ll start to see your metrics in an out-of-the-box dashboard like the one above. Monitor and alert on AWS Lambda serverless functions in minutes with Datadog.

Monitor G Suite activity with Datadog

G Suite is a collection of cloud-based productivity and collaboration tools developed by Google. Today, millions of teams use G Suite (e.g., Gmail, Drive, Hangouts) to streamline their workflows. Monitoring G Suite activity is an essential part of security monitoring and audits, especially if these applications have become tightly integrated with your organization’s data.

Announcing Datadog Security Monitoring

With the growing complexity and velocity of security threats in dynamic, cloud-native environments, it’s more important than ever for security teams to have the same visibility into their infrastructure, network, and applications that developers and operations do. Conversely, as developers and operations become responsible for securing their services, they need their monitoring platform to help surface possible threats.

What's next for monitoring Kubernetes

At Datadog, we rely heavily on Kubernetes, and we’re facing some interesting challenges as we use Kubernetes to scale further and strive for greater efficiency. To address these challenges, we’ve been working on solutions to help us better control how our clusters scale, and to make it easier to deploy and manage the Datadog Agent. Today, we’re open sourcing these solutions to share them with the rest of the Kubernetes community.

Implement monitoring as code with Datadog and CloudFormation Registry

AWS CloudFormation is a service that enables you to build infrastructure as code, similar to Terraform. You can create CloudFormation templates to provision and manage all of the resources for your stacks, such as EC2 instances, load balancers, and security groups. These templates automate the process of building infrastructure, creating repeatable steps that you can easily check into version control. This ensures that your configurations do not drift with each new environment you spin up.

Datadog's AWS re:Invent 2019 guide

AWS re:Invent is an annual gathering of tens of thousands of AWS staff, partners, and users for a full week of keynote sessions, feature announcements, customer case studies, hands-on workshops, and more. As in years past, we will be there with dozens of engineers, ready to answer your monitoring questions and show you the newest additions to Datadog.

Introducing dark mode for Datadog

Datadog provides full visibility into your environment through a wide variety of features, ranging from host and container maps of your dynamic infrastructure to customizable dashboards that provide a unified view of every layer of your stack. And now we’re pleased to announce that you can enjoy these visualization features and the rest of the Datadog platform in dark mode.

Monitor MapR performance with Datadog

MapR is an Apache Hadoop distribution that enables organizations to manage, analyze, and store all their data at scale. MapR handles a wide range of data types across infrastructures and locations by leveraging dataware, an abstraction layer in the enterprise software stack that separates data from any dependencies. We’re excited to announce that our new integration provides comprehensive visibility across all the moving parts of your MapR deployment.
