Summary

Datadog provides deep visibility into Windows containers, allowing developers to monitor application activity and make informed decisions on how to scale. The Datadog Agent automatically pulls real-time data from each host and container, populating customizable dashboards with metrics such as resource usage and node state. Container orchestration technologies like Kubernetes or Amazon ECS can be managed using the Datadog Agent's Autodiscovery feature, which automatically detects services running on containers as they are created. Additionally, Datadog collects logs and distributed request traces from Windows containers, enabling developers to find the source of errors or resource bottlenecks and determine the impact on their containers' vital signs. With over 850 integrations, Datadog provides a comprehensive view of the entire infrastructure and stack, allowing developers to migrate to a modern, cloud-native environment with ease.
