Summary

Datadog has enhanced its platform with three powerful tools—Sheets, DDSQL Editor, and advanced analysis features in Notebooks—designed to enable users to perform in-depth analysis and visualization of telemetry data without needing to export it to external tools. Sheets offer a spreadsheet-style interface ideal for users familiar with spreadsheets, allowing them to manipulate and visualize large datasets such as logs and infrastructure metrics. DDSQL Editor caters to those who prefer using SQL for precise and flexible querying, facilitating complex analyses like cross-source joins and cost optimization across cloud environments. Notebooks provide a collaborative space for building multistep queries and documenting investigations, which is particularly useful for incident analysis and correlating data across multiple sources. Together, these tools cater to a range of user preferences and workflows, enabling seamless exploration and analysis directly within the Datadog platform.
