OpenAI, known for its GPT family of large language models, has seen widespread adoption across various fields since the release of GPT-3 in 2020. Its API allows developers to leverage these sophisticated AI models, and now, Datadog has introduced an integration to monitor and optimize the use of OpenAI's API within organizations. This integration helps track usage patterns, manage costs by analyzing token consumption, and monitor performance by assessing API response times. Users can gain insights into how different models are employed across teams, identify unauthorized usage, and adjust API parameters to optimize application engagement and costs. With the ability to collect detailed logs and traces, organizations can ensure they stay within rate limits and address potential performance issues effectively.
