Monitor Google Cloud Vertex AI with Datadog

Vertex AI is Google’s platform offering AI and machine learning computing as a service—enabling users to train and deploy machine learning (ML) models and AI applications in the cloud. In June 2023, Google added generative AI support to Vertex AI, so users can test, tune, and deploy Google’s large language models (LLMs) for use in their applications.

Datadog On Mobile Software Development

Understanding the health and user experience of your mobile application is critical in order to avoid user frustration, understand application crashes, and reduce bugs mean time to resolution. To help with that task, Datadog has a mobile monitoring solution that allows developers to better understand and improve their application. But what are the things to take into account when building observability mobile SDKs? How can we gather the right telemetry without affecting the underlying application?

Visualize service ownership and application boundaries in the Service Map

The complexity of microservice architectures can make it hard to determine where an application’s dependencies begin and end and who manages which ones. This can pose a variety of challenges both in the course of day-to-day operations and during incidents. Lacking a clear picture of the ownership and interplay of your services can impede accountability and cause application development, incident investigations, and onboarding processes to become prolonged and haphazard.

Generative AI and Observability Automation - Sajid Mehmood & Michael Gerstenhaber

One of the biggest challenges in observability is separating the signal from the noise. As artificial intelligence (AI) tools become more powerful and accessible, it has generated a lot of buzz around the role of AI with respect to the performance and reliability of our technical systems and the teams that build and operate them. In this fireside chat, Michael Gertenhaber (Datadog VP of Product) and Sajid Mehmood (Datadog VP of Engineering) will sift through the hype to chat about what generative AI and Large Language Models (LLMs) will really mean for the future of observability and how it can benefit your teams today.

Right Size, Right Performance, Right Time

It’s been said that, “premature optimization is the root of all evil.” Contrarily, many engineers have also had to work with software riddled with so much technical debt and inefficiency that optimization is practically impossible and a complete rewrite is required. So when is the right time? In this panel session, we’ll talk with engineering leaders and architects about their approach to software optimization, when to do it, and how to design systems that scale and stay performant.

CTO Fireside Chat

Building large scale technical systems is hard, but building and scaling high performing technical organizations is even more difficult. In this session, Datadog Co-founder and CTO Alexis Lê-Quôc will sit down with Prashant Pandey, Head of Engineering at Asana, to discuss their approach to engineering leadership. They’ll share the hard-learned lessons from their long careers to help you cultivate better technical teams, covering topics from staying in tune with new technologies, enabling innovation, shipping modern ML and AI-based features, and scaling teams.

Efficiency and Effectiveness

WIth unlimited money, most technology problems become easy to solve. But how do you design, build, and operate large scale, performant systems without breaking the bank? In this session, Chandru Subramanian (Director of Engineering, Runtime Efficiency at Datadog) and Neil Innes (Sr. Engineering Manager, DevOps at FanDuel) will discuss how they balance efficiency and effectiveness to save money while also meeting key goals.
