Summary

The text discusses the integration of Datadog with Statuspage, a tool used by many external services to communicate their availability status to customers. This integration allows users to receive notifications when the services they are following experience downtime, and provides the capability to overlay these notifications with other metrics in their event stream for better context. Users can annotate and discuss incidents directly within the event stream, which facilitates faster investigation and resolution of issues. The setup for this integration is straightforward, requiring only a few minutes within the Datadog app, and allows users to tag and track the services they monitor efficiently. Existing Datadog customers can easily implement this integration to enhance their infrastructure monitoring, while new users are encouraged to start a trial to explore these capabilities.
