Summary

The Datadog Service Catalog provides a unified view into service ownership, dependencies, performance, reliability, and security posture, helping improve collaboration during incidents, detect monitoring gaps, and promote observability best practices. The new setup experience makes it easier for users to add service metadata without leaving the Datadog application, allowing them to track the source of each service's metadata and avoid unintended updates. Additionally, the Service Catalog enables auto-generated code to make metadata simpler to manage, leverage GitHub integration to automate service management, and monitor latest updates to ensure clarity and effectiveness in troubleshooting and delivering value to end users.
