Actionable Alerting

Datadog alerts use tags and machine learning to efficiently identify problems in your infrastructure, applications, and services. Every alert is specific, actionable, and contextual—even in large-scale and highly ephemeral environments—which helps minimize downtime and prevents alert fatigue. And with native SLO and SLA tracking, you can prioritize and address the issues that matter most to your business.

Automatically apply alerts to new hosts so you can scale up your environment without blind spots
