Information silos are a common by-product of growing technology companies, especially as their operations become more complex. Teams are often forced to work with gaps in knowledge and rely on their own experts for monitoring the services they manage. This makes it more difficult to build shared understanding across all teams involved in shipping new features, and ultimately slows down release cycles. Datadog's unified platform enables technology companies to focus on building and shipping features, instead of dedicating time to filling in knowledge gaps. Operational visibility is no longer limited to one or two in-house monitoring experts, as all teams can view and share the same real-time data in Datadog. With customizable dashboards, robust analytics tools, and collaboration features such as graph annotations, teams can support their agile release cycles and ship products to their customers faster.
