New capability provides Datadog customers
access to Datadog's comprehensive observability platform, while
benefiting from OpenTelemetry's standards-based
instrumentation
NEW YORK, June 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Datadog, Inc.
(NASDAQ: DDOG), the monitoring and security platform for cloud
applications, today announced a unified experience integrating the
Datadog Agent and OpenTelemetry Collector. With this announcement,
customers can use Datadog's fully supported Agent while accessing
the complete capabilities of the OpenTelemetry Collector, onboard
quickly using the existing collector configuration and centralize
the management of collectors remotely—all while benefiting from
Datadog's reliability and global support team.
Today, organizations use the OpenTelemetry Collector to
generate, process and flexibly route data to one or more
observability platforms, which often results in a trade-off between
OpenTelemetry-supported capabilities and ones offered by vendors.
In addition, managing and maintaining large OpenTelemetry Collector
fleets without access to dedicated support often leads to
operational complexities and unmet security requirements.
"Datadog is a top-ten contributor to OpenTelemetry and today's
announcement continues our ongoing commitment to that community and
open standards. Now users can simultaneously leverage Datadog's
leading observability products alongside OpenTelemetry Collector
capabilities in a unified approach," said Yrieix Garnier, VP of
Product at Datadog. "Both Datadog and OpenTelemetry users will
benefit from enhanced interoperability between OpenTelemetry and
Datadog, better control over their OpenTelemetry data and greater
flexibility in how they collect telemetry data—all while receiving
assistance for any technical or security issue."
With the unified OpenTelemetry Collector and Datadog Agent
experience, users can:
- Access Datadog's comprehensive observability solutions
alongside existing OpenTelemetry capabilities, enriching OTLP
data.
- Manage fleets of embedded OpenTelemetry Collectors remotely
with Datadog Fleet Automation and onboard faster without manual
configurations.
- Receive dedicated assistance for onboarding and troubleshooting
from Datadog's global support team when using the Datadog Agent
with the OpenTelemetry Collector and Datadog's SaaS platform.
The unified OpenTelemetry Collector and Datadog Agent experience
is now in beta. To learn more about the unified experience, please
