Summary

Datadog's Network Performance Monitoring (NPM) feature provides visibility into the flow of traffic in your network, allowing you to quickly troubleshoot application errors and latency. It can help identify issues with Consul service mesh configuration, such as incorrect security settings or expired TLS certificates, and provide insights into the health of Envoy proxies. The feature also gives you deep context into your Consul cluster's performance side by side with monitoring data from applications and infrastructure throughout your stack, making it easy to see whether application errors or latency are tied to the health and performance of your Consul cluster. With Datadog NPM, you can monitor traffic between microservices managed by Consul, ensure the health of Envoy proxies, and correlate and contextualize your Consul monitoring data.
