I use GitHub Ac­tions for Data­dog's Service Catalog, and you should, too

In this guest blog by Mike Stemle, a software engineer and Principal Architect for Arc XP division of the Washington Post, he discusses his love for Datadog Service Catalog and how it can be used to improve quality of life during production support. He explains that to get the full benefit from Service Catalog, you need to flesh out your organization’s service definitions using GitHub integration, Terraform, or manually supplying definition details to the Service Definition API. Stemle recommends using GitHub Actions to send information to Datadog and Service Catalog with his custom action called the Datadog Service Catalog Metadata Provider (DSCMP). He also covers how to use GitHub Actions together with DSCMP, organizational controls, and examples of enforcing organizational controls.
