Monitor your Edgecast CDN with Datadog

The Edgecast platform provides a content delivery network (CDN) and edge computing solutions for improving web performance, application security, and over-the-top video streaming. With its integration with Datadog, users can visualize key metrics such as cache hit ratio and bandwidth, enabling them to analyze aggregate data and identify specific issues. The Edgecast dashboard allows users to monitor long-term shifts in their network, including changes in cache hit ratio, and provides insights into how policy changes affect caching performance. Additionally, users can alert on key thresholds for metrics like cache hit ratio and average bandwidth, as well as configure anomaly monitors to detect abnormal behavior that deviates from historical baselines. This integration enables users to gain visibility into their CDN operations, monitor the impact of cache configuration changes, and deploy with confidence.
