Sashko Stubailo from the Apollo team has announced an integration of GraphQL metrics with Datadog, a popular monitoring and analytics platform. The integration allows developers to easily pipe metrics into Datadog, providing performance and error statistics such as request rates, error rates, cache hit rates, and latency histogram statistics. The data is tagged with GraphQL-specific information, enabling easy filtering by operation name. This integration is available on the Engine Standard and Pro plans, which also include benefits like longer data retention and proactive alerting. The integration makes it easier for developers to bring their favorite tools into their GraphQL workflows, allowing them to use existing technology investments in a way that works with their GraphQL API.
