Datadog is a community-driven platform built by engineers and SREs, and it's celebrating its community with the upcoming Datadog Summit in Tokyo, Japan on October 16. The summit will feature customer talks and panels, as well as hands-on activities like workshops and AWS GameDay, where attendees can learn from experts and network with other users. The event is free, but space is limited, so it's recommended to RSVP now to reserve a seat. The summit will showcase how companies are using Datadog to develop innovative solutions to technical challenges, such as Degica enriching their alerting system and NTT Docomo evolving their products based on monitoring data. Attendees can expect to learn practical examples and experience with observability and monitoring tools through workshops, including introductory courses for SREs, intermediate courses on synthetic and real user monitoring, and beginner-level courses on APM and distributed tracing. The event also includes opportunities for community building, networking, and a gamified learning experience through AWS GameDay.
