For many organizations, making the most of the visibility Datadog offers into the health and performance of their infrastructure means displaying dashboards to stakeholders in various settings continuously and in real time. But the standard solutions for sharing dashboards to large-format displays can be onerous, involving sundry software and hardware and restrictive manual setups. These solutions can also pose significant security risks, since they tend to involve sharing passwords or devices.
Cloud-native infrastructure has become the standard for deploying applications that are performant and readily available to a globally distributed user base. While this has enabled organizations to quickly adapt to the demands of modern app users, the rapid nature of this migration has also made cloud resources a primary target for security threats.
Testing early and often in the development cycle is a must for ensuring that your application meets user expectations. Poor performance and errors can alienate users and prevent you from meeting crucial benchmarks and OKRs. Additionally, having to constantly implement fixes after new, under-tested features are added can fatigue developers and strain your resources, making your organization less nimble overall.
Remote collaboration tools have transformed how remote and hybrid teams work synchronously. But while the current popular chat forum and video conferencing solutions are inarguably helpful, few were created with software development and operations in mind. CoScreen is the only real-time collaboration tool designed specifically for remote and hybrid engineering teams that integrate both interactive screen sharing and video conferencing features.
Customer-facing applications request and process many types of sensitive data, such as API keys, credit card numbers, and email addresses. As your application scales in size and complexity, it becomes harder to keep track of this sensitive data moving across more services, increasing the risk of data leaks.
For any organization that stores, processes, or transmits cardholder data, monitoring can pose a particular set of challenges. The Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard (DSS) dictates rigorous monitoring and data security requirements for the cardholder data environments (CDEs) of all merchants, service providers, and financial institutions.
To optimize its cloud investments, your organization needs internal stakeholders to act on shared knowledge about its cloud costs and cloud usage. But in practice, it’s difficult for organizations to gain a high degree of clarity about their cloud spending. The factors contributing to cost data are not normally visible to all stakeholders, and it’s often impossible to attribute costs to the teams, services, and applications that incurred them.
