The Datadog Operator is a Kubernetes operator designed to automate the deployment and management of Datadog Agents in Kubernetes clusters. It simplifies the process of monitoring Kubernetes clusters by providing a single source of truth for Agent configuration, automatically keeping Agents up-to-date with your configuration, and tracking the current status of each Agent. The Operator also enables seamless integration with Cluster Checks Runners to optimize resource utilization. With its open-source nature, the Datadog Operator allows users to manage all their Agents from one configuration file, making it easier to collect data from Kubernetes clusters.
