Full observability for modern applications
Datadog monitors both infrastructure and application performance to provide visibility into every layer of your stack.
- Drill down from a global overview to a request trace to a single SQL query
- Correlate app performance or errors with infrastructure metrics and events
- Quickly identify performance bottlenecks in code or infrastructure
Gap-free tracing across distributed systems
Datadog monitors every host and container, so you can trace requests from end to end, wherever they go.
- Track the performance of distributed applications on dynamic infrastructure
- Break down latency with end-to-end flame graphs
- Monitor all your cloud, on-prem, and hybrid applications in one place
Auto-instrumentation for request tracing
Datadog APM can automatically trace requests across many popular libraries and frameworks.
- Enable auto-instrumentation to collect spans from frontend to backend
- Get instant visibility via integrations with web frameworks like Django, Ruby on Rails, Gin, and Spring
- Collect detailed performance data from infrastructure components like Redis and Elasticsearch
Advanced graphing and alerting
APM dovetails with all the powerful visualization and alerting features you already use in Datadog.
- Use Datadog anomaly detection and outlier detection to surface performance issues
- Send alerts on latency or error rates via tools like Slack or PagerDuty
- Build drag-and-drop performance dashboards or manage dashboards programmatically via API
Open source, extensible tooling
The Datadog Agent is open source, with libraries and APIs for custom tracing.
- Use open source client libraries to instrument your code
- Collect custom traces from your applications using open APIs
- Deploy APM in seconds with a one-command install on most platforms
