Datadog

Datadog is a leading SaaS observability platform. In 2025, it focuses on AI Observability (monitoring LLMs) and automated remediation with Watchdog.

When to Use

  • SaaS Convenience: You want a complete solution (APM, Logs, Infra) without managing storage.
  • Full Stack Visibility: Frontend RUM (Real User Monitoring) connected to Backend Traces connected to DB Metrics.
  • AI Apps: Monitor token usage, latency, and costs of LLM calls.

Quick Start

Install Agent: DD_API_KEY=... bash -c "$(curl -L https://s3.amazonaws.com/dd-agent/scripts/install_script.sh)"

Enable APM (e.g. Node.js): DD_TRACE_AGENT_URL=http://localhost:8126 node --require dd-trace/init app.js
