Building & Monitoring a Serverless Application on AWS with Datadog

May 14, 2025 from 12:00pm - 3:00pm GMT

Virtual

Picture the scene, you’ve just built and deployed your first serverless service inside your company. Everything deployed smoothly, it seems to work correctly, and now you’re running in production with very little operational overhead. That is, until things start failing. Things start running slowly. And now your users are unhappy and you have no way to understand why.

Modern software development is hard, you’ve got complex systems managed by multiple teams using lots of managed cloud services. Having an effective observability solution that can monitor serverless environments at scale is essential.

That’s why Datadog is teaming up with AWS to host a workshop where you’ll learn how to use Datadog to observe your serverless, event-driven applications.

During the workshop, you’ll learn how you can use the insights that Datadog provides to successfully operate your AWS serverless services at scale.

What to Expect:

• Best practices for building modern serverless applications
• An overview of how Datadog monitors AWS serverless applications
• A hands-on lab exercise where you’ll design, deploy, and monitor a serverless microservice into an existing application

Who Should Attend

• Anyone that is currently using or evaluating Datadog for a serverless monitoring solution
