The Datadog Agent has been released with version 5.0.0, expanding OS support to include RedHat 7, CentOS 7, and the latest versions of Fedora, making configuration simpler for many integrations. The new release also adds SNMP metrics collection and expands Docker support, allowing users to monitor large numbers of containers and visualize key metrics on ScreenBoards. Additionally, the Agent contains all necessary libraries, eliminating dependency concerns, and a free trial is available for users who want to quickly collect, graph, analyze, and alert on the new metrics. The community's contributions were instrumental in making this release possible.
