Steve Harrington and Rogan Ferguson from Microsoft have announced a new integration with Azure DevOps, which allows organizations to see the full picture as they build and deploy dynamic applications. This integration provides teams with new insights into their builds, releases, work items, and code events, enabling them to understand how deployments impact application performance and halt bad updates automatically. Managers can also utilize Datadog-derived metrics for tracking development and operations workflows, improving overall development and operations workflows. The integration allows users to track CI/CD pipelines in real-time, correlate events with data from the rest of their infrastructure, and overlay events on top of timeseries graphs to visually correlate build and release events with changes in application performance. Additionally, users can use Datadog monitors as deployment gates in Azure Pipelines to ensure deployments go off without a hitch, monitor devops processes, and set up the integration in minutes.
