This Month in Datadog - July 2025

In July’s episode of This Month in Datadog, we’re doing things differently by spotlighting the people behind the products you rely on.

Jeremy is joined by Tristan Ratchford to discuss saving time and effort when you’re on call with Bits AI SRE, and by Kevin Hu to explore gaining visibility into datasets across the entire data lifecycle with Data Observability.

Lighten your on-call workload with Bits AI SRE

Engineers today have more visibility than ever before. And yet, their jobs aren’t getting any easier. Tristan Ratchford discusses Bits AI SRE, our agentic model of incident response, which investigates alerts, coordinates incidents, and learns from every response.

Tristan also chats about the challenges facing on-call engineers, building an agent from scratch, and what’s next for Bits AI SRE. Tune into his conversation for insights into these topics and more. And when you’re done, check out the blog post that introduces this feature.

Gain visibility into the datasets with Data Observability

By the time many teams detect issues with data in warehouses, the damage is already done. Kevin Hu explains how Datadog Data Observability gives you visibility into your datasets throughout the data lifecycle.

He also talks about his transition from co-founder and CEO of Metaplane to building a product at Datadog, what he’s building today, and the future of data observability. There’s a lot more to cover, so be sure to watch Kevin’s conversation with Jeremy and to read the blog post about Datadog Data Observability.

Accelerate incident response with AI voice interface

Also featured in this episode is a short video about our AI voice interface, which helps speed up your response to incidents.
