Keep every campus system reliable, secure, and ready to scale

Follow the experience, not just the server: Students, faculty, and staff depend on LMS platforms, enrollment and registration systems, portals, research applications, mobile apps, websites, and identity services. Real User Monitoring and Synthetic Monitoring give teams visibility into real and simulated user journeys, while Session Replay and Error Tracking provide the context to understand where and why experiences break down.

Connect the front end to everything behind it: Digital experience is only part of the picture. Connecting it with application, database, network, and infrastructure telemetry gives teams shared context to trace a slow registration page back to its underlying cause — before add/drop or finals week turns it into a help-desk queue.

Security can't live only in the SOC: Universities run unusually open, distributed environments while protecting student, employee, financial, and sensitive research data. Cloud SIEM brings security and operational signals together for real-time threat detection and investigation, while Cloud Security continuously identifies misconfiguration, vulnerabilities, and risks across cloud environments.

Give security and IT shared context: Sensitive Data Scanner finds and redacts PII and PHI in telemetry, while App & API Protection connects application threats with the context teams need to investigate and respond. With security and operational data on the same platform, security, infrastructure, and applications teams can assess risk and resolve issues from a shared source of context. Datadog also supports institutional efforts to align with requirements and frameworks such as FERPA, HIPAA, and NIST CSF.
