Olivier Pomel and the Datadog team have released ScreenBoards, a new synthetic dashboard feature designed to provide an easy-to-use interface for data visualization on various screens. The goal of ScreenBoards is to simplify the process of creating custom dashboards by leveraging PowerPoint-style templates and layout capabilities. They allow users to control the flow of information, add notes or call-outs, and share read-only versions with others. ScreenBoards can integrate data from multiple Datadog sources, including Github commits, Chef runs, and AWS metrics, and support various widget types such as time-series, color-coded numbers, and text notes. The feature is designed to help users tell their story by presenting key metrics in a clear and concise manner, making it an attractive option for businesses looking to improve data visualization and communication.
