Datadog Essentials

During an incident, logs in one observability platform and traces in another slow everyone down, and AI can’t find the root cause faster when that data is scattered across single-purpose tools. Hear from Jay Barker, who leads the Datadog team at RapDev, and Senior Cloud Engineer Dan Roy on how RapDev approaches migrations from tools like Splunk, New Relic, and Dynatrace into Datadog.

Learn why rebuilding dashboards and alerts one-to-one is a common pitfall, how early planning, automation, dual shipping, and a tagging strategy keep timelines and costs in check, and how knowledge transfer and governance leave teams self-sufficient after the engagement ends.
