Product Benefits

Visualize Kubernetes Cluster Health and Performance Out-of-the-Box

  • Within minutes of installing Datadog’s Azure integration, get full visibility into your clusters’ health and performance at cluster, node, and pod levels
  • Keep tabs on your containerized workloads and visualize trends anywhere in your AKS clusters
  • Monitor and alert on important AKS resource utilization metrics like CPU, memory, and storage usage, as well as cluster health information like pod phase and state

Manage High-Scale K8s Environments with Confidence

  • Enable low impact monitoring of 10,000+ nodes with the cluster agent
  • Optimize horizontal auto-scaling by connecting Datadog to your HPA and collecting request rate, latency, and available network bandwidth
  • Gain visibility into container orchestration and easily manage Kubernetes pods over or under-allocating available resources via the real-time live container view and auto-generated container map
  • Improve operational costs and reduce excess capacity based on high-granularity historical data

Quickly Troubleshoot Container Orchestration Issues

  • Visualize control plane data from your API server to get valuable insights into your AKS cluster’s orchestration layer
  • Get alerted on elevated error rates in API server logs and seamlessly correlate with rising inflight request counts to measure latency
  • Diagnose potential AKS workload issues such as spikes in the number of failed schedule attempts
