Monitor API Performance with Runscope and Datadog

John Sheehan, Co-founder and CEO of Runscope, discusses the importance of API performance monitoring in microservices architecture with 60+ APIs. He introduces a turn-key integration between Runscope's API performance monitoring and testing tools and Datadog's powerful interactive dashboards and real-time notifications. This integration allows users to easily create tests, monitor APIs for uptime, performance, and correctness, and correlate API performance with infrastructure data. The example provided demonstrates how measuring API performance against IT infrastructure data can help quickly identify the cause of API issues related to infrastructure. Keen IO uses this integration to monitor average query durations and integrate mission-critical API data into their existing Datadog dashboards for fine-grained control.
