Achieving optimal performance can be challenging when you depend on separate platforms to monitor service health and to manage your logs. When data about your systems is spread across multiple platforms, investigating issues—and ultimately resolving them—takes longer and requires expertise with more tools. It takes more effort to identify real customer impact, as well as to verify that your responses to an incident are having the desired effect.

Since we made Datadog APM generally available last year, we have continually added new features and support for new languages and frameworks to ensure that you can monitor every aspect of application performance. Datadog APM helps companies such as Airbnb, Square, and Zendesk to optimize application performance and deliver top-notch customer experiences.

Since 2006, Amazon Web Services (AWS) has spurred organizations to embrace Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) to build, automate, and scale their systems. Over the years, AWS has expanded beyond basic compute resources (such as EC2 and S3), to include tools like CloudWatch for AWS monitoring, and managed infrastructure services like Amazon RDS for database management.
