This is how Opcito enhanced monitoring, logging, APM, and incident management with Datadog

Engagement details

The customer provides a monitoring and security platform for cloud applications that brings together end-to-end traces, metrics, and logs to make applications, infrastructure, and third-party services entirely observable, helping businesses secure their systems and avoid downtime. Due to limited insight into their extensive AWS infrastructure and application performance, early detection and quick resolution of complex issues were problematic. The system's growth in scale and the addition of microservices made pinpointing root causes increasingly complex, leading to longer resolution times. Also, consolidating and analyzing log data from various AWS services were scattered and inefficient, impeding timely problem detection and response. Opcito's monitoring experts proposed to integrate Datadog with the customer's AWS infrastructure for detailed performance data and insights.
