DASH 2024: Guide to Datadog's newest announcements

At this year’s DASH, we announced new products and features that enable your team to observe your environment, secure your infrastructure and workloads, and act to remediate problems before they affect customers. LLM Observability, which enables you to get deep visibility into your generative AI applications, is now generally available. The Datadog Agent now includes an embedded OTel Collector to provide native support for OpenTelemetry.

Unify your OpenTelemetry and Datadog experience with the embedded OTel Collector in the Agent

OpenTelemetry (OTel) is an open source, vendor-neutral observability solution that consists of a suite of components—including APIs, SDKs, and the OTel Collector—that allow teams to monitor their applications and services in a standardized format. OTel defines this data via the OpenTelemetry Protocol (OTLP), a standard for the encoding and transfer of telemetry data that organizations can use to collect, process, and export telemetry and route it to observability backends, such as Datadog.
