Instrumenting a tech stack for distributed tracing is a complicated process that often takes weeks. For large fleets running services written in multiple languages, the timeline could be months. Every service needs a tracing library added, configured, and redeployed, and that work has to fit into each team’s release schedule. Datadog’s Single Step Instrumentation (SSI) cuts the time it takes to instrument your applications to send traces to Datadog APM down to minutes.

Until now, allocating by account name meant doing the work yourself: hand-building a custom dimension that mapped every twelve-digit AWS ID to a readable name, then maintaining it by hand in CostFormation.

Tracking tests on non-default branches was one of the most requested capabilities during the Bitbucket Tests (beta). We heard you, and today, we’re shipping it. Most teams don’t ship from main. Integration happens on develop, stabilisation on staging, releases cut from release. Until now, Bitbucket Tests only tracked the tests from default(main) branch, leaving the branches that actually matter invisible. Multiple branch tracking in Tests changes that.
