Use plain English to query your multi-cloud infrastructure in Resource Catalog

Datadog's Resource Catalog has introduced new enhancements to address the complexities of managing modern cloud environments, which often involve thousands of resources across multiple providers. It provides a centralized inventory of cloud infrastructure, supporting more than 1,000 resource types, allowing organizations to effectively manage compliance, security, and cost optimization. A key feature is the natural language querying (NLQ) capability, which enables users to ask questions in plain English and have them automatically translated into structured queries. This facilitates easier exploration and management of cloud resources without the need for deep technical knowledge or provider-specific syntax. The Resource Catalog integrates data from various cloud providers, including AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and Oracle Cloud, and supports a wide range of resources such as Amazon Route 53 and AWS Transit Gateways. By allowing users to save and share useful views, it also enhances collaboration and supports repeat workflows for tasks like compliance checks and cost reviews, making cloud infrastructure more accessible to nontechnical team members.
