Summary

Modern enterprises increasingly depend on software-defined wide area networks (SD-WANs) to connect their branch offices, data centers, and cloud environments, which enhances flexibility and performance but also adds complexity. To address issues such as slow applications or intermittent connections, Datadog's integration with Versa SD-WAN offers comprehensive visibility into Versa-managed environments by collecting critical metrics related to device health, service level agreements (SLA), interfaces, and traffic. This integration allows network and infrastructure teams to validate traffic paths, identify performance degradation, and understand the impact of application and user traffic across sites. The integration helps teams monitor WAN edge and controller health, track SLA metrics for links and tunnels, analyze interface utilization and congestion, and understand application, user, and Quality of Service (QoS) traffic patterns. With these insights, teams can ensure SLA compliance, optimize capacity planning, and quickly troubleshoot connectivity issues, thereby enhancing the overall performance and reliability of their networks.
