Features - Datadog Modern Application Performance Monitoring

End-to-End Tracing

End-to-end application performance monitoring.

Follow requests from RUM sessions to services, serverless functions, and databases
View traces and logs in context with automatic trace_id injection
Connect distributed traces to infrastructure metrics, network calls, and live processes
Tie synthetic API and browser test failures to backend errors

Tracing without Limits: no sampling, no blind spots.

Investigate incidents faster with real-time visibility into all ingested traces and service dependencies over the last 15 minutes
Resolve issues quicker with ML-based insights that automatically surface error and latency outliers during active investigations
Retain only the traces that are most important to your business by setting custom tag-based retention filters
Set SLOs, track trends, and monitor KPIs by generating span-based metrics using any set of tags

Code-level visibility, instant root cause analysis.

Optimize your production code and save on compute costs with always-on, low overhead code profiling
Reduce service latency with a breakdown of slow requests by time spent in code on CPU, GC, lock contention, and I/O
Explain performance regressions caused by inefficient code by comparing code profiles using any tag and timeframe
Improve application performance by monitoring profile aggregations of services and endpoints and detecting bottlenecks in your code

Track deploys, ship with confidence.

Monitor and compare impacts of canary, blue-green, and shadow deploys on application performance
Pinpoint error and latency outliers with out-of-the-box service dashboards
Visualize service dependency changes due to deploys using the Service Map
