In the latest episode of "This Month in Datadog," viewers are introduced to a range of new features and updates designed to enhance user experience and operational efficiency. The DDSQL Editor now enables users to generate SQL queries using natural language with the aid of AI, eliminating the need for extensive SQL knowledge. The platform also offers improved cost management tools through Instance Explorer and a new Cloud Cost Management integration for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, allowing users to compare instance costs and monitor their cloud spending effectively. Additionally, Datadog has introduced tools to keep teams aligned during outages with real-time visibility into the health of over 40 providers and the ability to manage flaky tests through a centralized view. The platform's new OTLP Metrics API facilitates the ingestion of OpenTelemetry Protocol metrics from serverless and third-party SaaS environments without the need for deploying collectors. Other noteworthy updates include video replay for mobile test investigations, runtime security alerts via Falco integration, and the expansion of data source options in Reference Tables. These tools collectively aim to optimize performance, streamline operations, and ensure transparency across services.
