Azure, Microsoft’s public cloud computing platform, is used by companies of all sizes to build and release global-scale applications. From start-ups looking to reduce upfront infrastructure cost to enterprises aiming to release products to market faster, Azure offers a wide range of cloud services that help companies meet their business goals. With services for compute, networking, analytics, storage, and more, companies have the ability to deploy distributed, scalable infrastructure. But these services also introduce complexity, as teams need visibility into every layer of their infrastructure to efficiently diagnose performance issues.
Datadog collects and unifies all of the data streaming from these complex environments, with extensive support for more than 40 Azure services through easy-to-install integrations. Companies can deploy the Datadog Agent directly on their Azure virtual machines to collect metrics with greater granularity—down to one-second resolution.
