Summary

Datadog has integrated its platform with RethinkDB, a document-oriented database that enables real-time updates and sharding capabilities. The integration provides granular visibility into database servers, tables, and shards, helping ensure the health and performance of RethinkDB deployments. It automatically queries system statistics tables to track client activity within the deployment, providing detailed information on the current number of clients and connections. The integration also tracks replication operations, server availability, and database monitoring metrics, enabling users to identify potential issues and optimize their cluster for better performance. With this integration, users can collect RethinkDB metrics and logs, as well as instrument their applications with Datadog APM, to gain comprehensive visibility into the health and performance of their database cluster.
