Summary

Datadog has released a new integration with TeamCity, allowing developers to gain deep visibility into their continuous integration (CI) pipelines and identify bottlenecks in real-time. The integration enables data-driven decision-making to improve the performance and reliability of CI systems, ultimately leading to faster code releases and reduced errors. To configure the integration, users need to download the Datadog CI plugin on the TeamCity server, set up parameters such as API keys and site URLs, and enable the integration in their project settings. Once enabled, data from TeamCity pipelines flows into Datadog, providing a comprehensive view of pipeline health and performance. Users can investigate pipeline failures, identify performance regressions, and optimize build chain performance using various features such as pipeline overview pages, timeseries widgets, and flame graph views.
