.NET monitoring with Datadog APM and distributed tracing

Microsoft's .NET Framework has gained popularity since its introduction in 2002, with organizations such as UPS, Stack Overflow, and Jet.com using it. The rise of the .NET Core runtime now supports cross-platform development for this high-performance framework. Datadog APM and distributed tracing are now generally available for both .NET Framework and .NET Core applications, allowing deeper visibility into these environments. Datadog's .NET monitoring provides real-time insights into application performance, helping developers identify bottlenecks and optimize their applications. The Service Map automatically maps out microservices architecture based on data collected from APM, while the App Analytics feature helps find specific request traces for investigating errors and bottlenecks. Watchdog uses machine learning to alert users of anomalies in .NET apps. Datadog integrates with cloud services like Azure and AWS, allowing users to monitor their .NET applications and infrastructure in one place.
