Citrix Hypervisor, a type 1 hypervisor formerly known as Citrix XenServer, allows organizations to manage virtual infrastructures, including VMs, virtual desktops, and applications, with enhanced availability and flexibility through resource pools. Effective monitoring of these environments at all levels—from physical hosts to VMs and management toolstack—is crucial to maintaining performance and avoiding resource bottlenecks. Datadog's integration with Citrix Hypervisor facilitates this by collecting key metrics and logs that provide insights into resource utilization and potential bottlenecks. The integration allows users to monitor physical host resources, VM performance, session counts in resource pools, and XAPI memory usage, which are essential for optimizing virtual desktop infrastructures and ensuring efficient workload management. Users can track these metrics within Datadog's platform, which supports over 850 other services and technologies, offering a comprehensive monitoring solution.
