Ensure healthy digital operations

Gain comprehensive visibility into application, infrastructure,
and device performance

Modernization efforts are transforming the healthcare and life sciences industries, as companies move to digitize their operations and increasingly automate their workflows. Even as healthcare and life sciences firms adopt more complex technologies, Datadog enables them to gain real-time insight and control over the health of all of their digital assets, while maintaining HIPAA compliance. Across legacy and cutting-edge IT environments, Datadog provides visibility and analytics into application performance, device hardware, and user experience, all in a single pane of glass.

Monitor digital assets at global scale

Healthcare and life sciences companies interact with potentially millions of patients and their records across a variety of devices and applications, generating a massive, complex data stream about application performance, device status, and user experience. Datadog brings together real-time data from every digital asset in use, even at the scale of hundreds of millions of devices or user interactions. With Datadog's robust dashboarding and alerting features, engineering teams can pinpoint issues in individual devices, applications, or lab systems, and quickly correlate application and infrastructure data to determine the cause.

Accelerate DevOps initiatives, cloud migrations, EMR rollouts, and other modernization efforts

Datadog helps healthcare and life sciences firms ensure that modernization projects stay on or ahead of schedule. With more than 600 vendor-supported integrations and accompanying out-of-the-box dashboards, Datadog supports legacy IT stacks and offers turn-key support for nearly any new technology that is being adopted. This single-pane-of-glass visibility enables companies to establish performance baselines, validate that new technologies and processes are working as expected, and quickly address any issues that arise.

Proactively identify potential issues and outages

Healthcare and life sciences companies run mission-critical systems, and engineering teams at these companies need the ability to identify potential problems and resolve them before they escalate. Datadog provides machine learning–based alerting that detects outliers or anomalies, and that forecasts resource usage and user demand, so engineers can proactively prevent downtime.
