Summary

Microsoft Azure is a popular cloud provider among enterprise companies, with over 66% of Fortune 500 companies using it. Datadog has integrated with Azure App Service, allowing users to monitor their web, mobile, and business applications alongside their Azure SQL Databases and other hosts, applications, and services. The integration provides out-of-the-box dashboards for monitoring incoming requests, HTTP response codes, and other metrics. Datadog's agentless approach to monitoring makes it easier to determine the root cause of application failures and errors by correlating data from multiple platforms, including Azure, on-premises, or elsewhere. With this integration, users can also track custom metrics specific to their application and visualize performance across arbitrary granularity using tags. To get started with Datadog's Azure App Service integration, users should first integrate Azure with Datadog and then enable the integration, adding it to their list of monitored technologies.
