AI Doesn't Fix Observability – It's a Force Multiplier

Most teams treat AI as a shortcut to faster incident triage, then wonder why it gets sent chasing red herrings instead of root causes. In this session, RapDev Solutions Architect Logan Rohloff breaks down the tagging, telemetry, and governance foundations Datadog teams need in place before AI can actually help with troubleshooting. From a real outage where missing NGINX logs turned a 6-minute fix into a 7.5-hour incident, to the least-privilege guardrails that keep agents from taking down production, learn exactly what to fix before you turn AI loose on your observability stack.
