My overall experience with 10/10 with datadog. I'm planning for certification on this tool for overall understanding of its capabilities.

We are using Datadog to ingest logs from infrastructure devices across multiple customers to monitor and manage their networks for capacity and security.

Overall I am neutral on Datadog usage. If we don't have any other options like Elastic Stack then we can use this.

It is very useful tool and we hardly getting any downtime issue with the Datadog itself.

For our AWS deployment, we use Datadog for application performance and server monitoring as well as synthetic HTTP tests . DataDog enables real-time information and measuring engineering-specific metrics and allows you to control how you trace and diagnose data. If you are looking to track the time it takes for a web hook to fire after an asynchronous request has been made, you can store the time the request has been sent in your database and when the webhook fires for that request, measure the delta and send it to DataDog. DataDog integrates with Slack, which allows for alerts on average and max thresholds.
