Datadog has released an updated user interface (UX) for its Network Performance Monitoring (NPM) feature, designed to simplify network investigations and provide guidance in identifying key issues such as top traffic costs, service dependencies, DNS health, and areas where recommended queries can help jumpstart investigations. The new UX automatically organizes traffic data into distinct categories, enabling users to quickly grasp key network information within the context of various problem-solving use cases. Additionally, Datadog has embedded recommended queries on the NPM Analytics and DNS pages to preload critical metrics for troubleshooting network performance issues.
