Summary

Datadog Network Monitoring provides deep visibility into software-defined networking (SDN) solutions such as SD-WANs, cloud-managed networks like Meraki, and data center fabrics like Cisco ACI. With integrations with leading SD-WAN vendors, Datadog offers out-of-the-box dashboards that provide critical device metrics, enabling teams to quickly spot issues and begin troubleshooting. The platform also provides visibility into both physical and virtual components of SD-WANs, allowing for a unified view of how physical connectivity impacts application traffic. Additionally, Datadog's network path feature and enriched NetFlow monitoring add context to the full end-to-end path of SD-WAN traffic and traffic maps from LAN to WAN. The platform also integrates with cloud-managed networks like Meraki, providing actionable insights into Wi-Fi performance issues and bandwidth bottlenecks. Furthermore, Datadog provides end-to-end visibility into Cisco ACI solutions, simplifying data center operations by using policy-driven controls across physical and virtual environments.
