Datadog APM | Datadog

Comprehensive Observability for Golang Applications

Troubleshoot, optimize, and secure your Golang applications faster with end-to-end distributed tracing and service-centric observability at scale, correlated with all telemetry types.

Product Benefits

Find Root Causes Faster with Thread-Level Distributed Tracing

  • Easily detect bottlenecks in your Go code, down to the method or line level, including inefficient Goroutine management, memory leaks, garbage collection issues, slow database queries, high I/O latency, and performance impacts from third-party services
  • Identify root causes quickly with traces automatically correlated with your logs, Go runtime metrics, Goroutine execution data, database queries, third-party API latency, and frontend telemetry—all in one view
  • Filter and analyze traces using trace-level attributes, service relationships, endpoints, and other properties, all without needing to learn a complex query language
  • Monitor Go applications instrumented with OpenTelemetry (OTel) APIs and Collector, within the Datadog Agent for full interoperability across environments

Live Visibility and Control Over Your Golang Traces

  • Search and analyze traces from your Go apps live within the last 15 minutes, ensuring real-time visibility into high-concurrency services
  • Retain errors and high latency traces automatically for 15 days
  • Fine-tune cost-visibility tradeoffs with fine-grained ingestion controls and tag-based retention filters

Instantly Generate Golang Logs, Spans, Metrics, and Tags without Redeploying Code

  • Automatically instrument your applications for popular Golang frameworks and libraries, such as gRPC and net/http
  • Expedite debugging of production issues with granular insights into your Go code’s runtime behavior and Goroutine interactions by adding log statements without changing code
  • Add spans to troubleshoot slow requests and specific operations in your Golang services without leaving the Datadog platform
  • Create metrics on the fly that measure the time any method in your code is consuming in production, and use metric expressions to focus on specific requests

Get Goroutine-Level Insights into Performance Bottlenecks in Production

  • Detect the most resource-consuming functions or methods in your applications in seconds with a lightweight, next-generation profiler that’s easy-to-use and always-on
  • Address threading concurrency, and multiprocessing challenges such as lock contention, deadlocks, and asynchronous bottlenecks, with detailed performance breakdowns
  • Determine root causes of issues with breakdowns of time spent on CPU, garbage collection, and lock contention to improve CPU utilization, memory allocation, and user latency
  • Surface runtime issues, such as inefficient Goroutine scheduling, garbage collection, and memory leaks, to minimize latency, and reduce downtime

Ensure Smooth Deployments and Eliminate Performance Regressions

  • Follow issues over time to know when they first started, if they are still ongoing, and how often they occur with Error Tracking
  • Compare application performance and impact across hosts, versions, and time ranges during rolling, canary, blue/green, or shadow deploys
  • Quickly troubleshoot faulty deployments with automatic faulty deployment detection and decide whether to roll back or ship a fix

Centralize Your Service Knowledge and Operations

  • Achieve end-to-end service ownership at scale, get real-time performance insights, detect and address reliability and security risks, and manage application dependencies all in one place
  • Get RED metrics based on 100% of traffic with 15-month retention so you can search, analyze, and visualize any trace using any tag
  • Automatically discover, catalog, and monitor services—no instrumentation code changes necessary—with Universal Service Monitoring
  • Reduce mean time to detection through automatic dependency mapping, powered by eBPF technology

Full-Stack Defense across Apps, Workloads, and Infrastructure

  • Track your security posture easily with out-of-the-box threat activity, exposure, and vulnerabilities ratings captured in the Datadog Severity Score
  • Triage vulnerability impact in full context with continuous runtime scans across open source libraries
  • Remediate issues with out-of-the-box actionable guidance and automatic correlation between your application and infrastructure
  • Quickly discover code vulnerabilities and attack attempts in your Java, .NET, PHP, Node.js, Ruby, Python, Go, and C++ applications

Receive Alerts Only for the Issues that Matter and Eliminate False-Positives

  • Set up recommended alerts with 1 click for anomalies and outliers that account for daily, weekly, and seasonal fluctuations
  • Proactively prevent outages and errors in the future by alerting on metric forecasts
  • Combine alerts into composite alerts for greater granularity and stronger signal to reduce the noise
  • Automatically detect unanticipated outliers, anomalies, and errors with Watchdog
