Datadog 101

A presentation at Datadog Workshop by Daniel "phrawzty" Maher

Metrics, Dashboards, Traces, Synthetics, and more. If you are just getting introduced to Datadog, the tools and technologies can be overwhelming. It is hard to know where to start when working with the product for the first time. In this workshop we will introduce you to all of the major components of your new toolbelt. You will use metrics and dashboards to get an overall feel of what’s going on. Then go deeper with traces and logs to figure out specifics. We will even look at an end user’s perspective using synthetics and real user monitoring. By the end of the workshop you will be better able to tackle the issues that come up in your own environment.
