Observability Pipelines

Datadog Observability Pipelines enables you to make value based decisions on your logs with the ability to aggregate, process, and route logs within your own infrastructure. You can easily dual-ship, filter, redact, enrich, enforce quotas on your logs and more to control log volumes, reduce vendor lock-in, maintain compliance, and enhance downstream analytics.

Cost-effective processing and routing of all your logs

Filter logs before you route them, reduce the size of your logs, and retain relevant fields
Stay within budget by imposing rule-based daily quotas or sampling strategies without losing access to mission-critical KPIs and trends
Select log destination based on priority and needs, routing noisy logs to an archive

Simplify migrations and reduce vendor lock-in

Dual-ship logs easily to ensure business continuity when migrating between vendors or using multiple solutions
Onboard new log data sources and destinations at your own pace without disrupting your existing workflows or sacrificing visibility
Take advantage of best-of-breed solutions with easy routing for different logging use cases

Transform and enrich logs for efficient analysis

Automatically identify and convert over 150 common log types into easily queryable, structured format using the Grok parser
Enhance security and improve data analysis using the GeoIP Parser, which helps you identify an IP address’s geographical location
Enrich logs with contextual data using custom tables to enhance usability for downstream analysis
Simplify debugging, increase searchability, and speed up Root Cause Analysis (RCA) by inserting a hostname within log messages

Meet your organization’s security and compliance requirements

Fully or partially redact sensitive data—such as credit cards, email addresses, IP addresses—before it leaves your environment using Datadog Sensitive Data Scanner
