Guarantee Network Uptime with Network Uptime Monitoring
Network downtime is no fun for anyone. End users (tied to their computing devices) don’t know what to do, customers and partners can’t do business with you and IT pulls out more hair than a barber shop floor. Network downtime leads to lost productivity, business and precious IT time. Here are a few uptime facts to consider: The answer to all these ills is to avoid network downtime in the first place by ensuring the opposite: network uptime.
Add Visual Regression Testing to your Synthetic Monitoring
Checkly now supports Visual Regression Testing (VRT) with Playwright's `toHaveScreenshot` method. Add a single assertion to your browser checks and include VRT in your sites' and apps' global monitoring.
Why Network Load Balancer Monitoring is Critical
Your networks are the highways that enable data transfers and cloud-based collaboration. Like highways connect people to physical locations, networks connect people to applications and databases. As you would look up the fastest route between two physical locations, your workforce members need the fastest connectivity between two digital locations. Network load balancers enable you to prevent and identify digital “traffic jams” by redistributing incoming network requests across your servers.
How to easily add application monitoring in Kubernetes pods
The Elastic APM K8s Attacher lets the Elastic APM agent auto-attach to the application in your pods by adding just one annotation to your deployment The Elastic® APM K8s Attacher allows auto-installation of Elastic APM application agents (e.g., the Elastic APM Java agent) into applications running in your Kubernetes clusters. The mechanism uses a mutating webhook, which is a standard Kubernetes component, but you don’t need to know all the details to use the Attacher.
Monitoring-as-Code for Scaling Observability
As data volumes continue to grow and observability plays an ever-greater role in ensuring optimal website and application performance, responsibility for end-user experience is shifting left. This can create a messy situation with hundreds of R&D members from back-end engineers, front-end teams as well as DevOps and SREs, all shipping data and creating their own dashboards and alerts.

Datadog on Design Systems
Over the last five years, the Datadog platform has grown. We added Application Performance Monitoring to complement our core infrastructure monitoring product, Log Management, Synthetic and Real User Monitoring, and more. For an enterprise software platform to be successful, the whole has to be greater than the sum of its parts. In Datadog’s case, this means users must be able to connect different types of data, pivot seamlessly from one context to another, and follow the thread of an investigation wherever it might lead.
