Outcomes
Haylix’s Datadog Implementation offers numerous benefits, providing businesses with a comprehensive solution for monitoring their applications and infrastructure. Key advantages include:
- Assessment and Planning:
Analysing the existing monitoring setup of the organisation, including tools, metrics, logs, and any other relevant data sources. This assessment helps in creating a migration plan tailored to the organization’s specific needs, and goals while maximising Datadog’s value. - Configuration and Setup:
Once the migration plan is in place, the next step is to configure Datadog according to the best practices and requirements identified during the assessment phase. This may involve setting up data ingestion pipelines, configuring monitoring agents, creating custom dashboards (5 included), and defining alerting rules. - Integration with Existing Systems:
Organisations often have a variety of tools and systems in their IT environment. Integrating Datadog with these existing systems allows for a more comprehensive monitoring solution. This includes integrating with cloud platforms, Azure and AWS. Integration into container orchestration tools , CI/CD pipelines, and ticketing systems are available under an extended services scope. - Training and Documentation:
