Speed up your root cause analysis with Metric Correlations

Metric Correlations is a new feature by Datadog that helps users identify possible root causes of issues in their system by searching for correlated metrics and events. It automatically finds candidates for the causes of an issue, saving time and effort compared to manual browsing through dashboards and plotting metrics. The feature can be launched from multiple entry points such as dashboards, monitors, notebooks, and Watchdog, which detects abnormal trends within a metric. Metric Correlations helps users understand the full extent of a problem and its side effects, allowing them to quickly find remediation paths. Users can adjust the area of interest for their search and tailor it to include custom metrics or specific environments, services, or parts of infrastructure.
