Summary

Datadog offers an integration with Airflow that enables the ingestion of Airflow metrics into Datadog, allowing users to visualize and filter these metrics in a single consolidated view. This integration includes features such as alerting on key Airflow metrics, monitoring Airflow logs, and providing Data Jobs Monitoring for proactive detection and troubleshooting of issues within Airflow pipelines. Additionally, Datadog's Log Management feature collects Airflow logs and displays them within the Log Explorer, while Data Jobs Monitoring aggregates live data on each task execution for Airflow DAG runs, represented as Datadog traces. This integration provides comprehensive visibility into Airflow workflows and supports a single source of truth for monitoring data pipelines alongside other technologies supporting applications.
