Datadog

{Supports: API for NoSQL, MongoDB, Gremlin, Cassandra & Table}

Datadog is a fully unified platform encompassing infrastructure monitoring, application performance monitoring, log management, user-experience monitoring, and more. By bringing together data from every tool and service in your company’s stack, Datadog provides a single source of truth for troubleshooting, optimizing performance, and cross-team collaboration. Everything in Datadog is organized under the same set of tags, so all the data relevant to a particular issue is automatically correlated. By eliminating the blind spots, Datadog reduces the risk of overlooked errors, mitigates the burden of ongoing service maintenance, and accelerates digital transformations.

Datadog collects over 40 different gauge and count metrics from CosmosDB, including the total available storage per region, the number of SQL databases created, and more. These metrics are collected through the Datadog Azure integration, and appear in the platform 40% faster than the rest of the industry. Datadog also provides an out-of-the-box dashboard for CosmosDB, which provides immediate insight into the performance of CosmosDB instances. Users can visualize platform-level metrics, such as total request units consumed, also API-level metrics, such as the number of Cassandra keyspaces created to better understand their CosmosDB usage.

Datadog is being used by various Azure Cosmos DB customers, which include

  • Maersk
  • PWC
  • PayScale
  • AllScripts
  • Hearst
