How we vet
What senior Datadog actually looks like
APM and distributed tracing configured per service, not per default
Log pipelines: parsing, sampling, and exclusion filters that control cost
Monitors tied to SLOs with multi-window burn-rate alerting
Cost governance: custom metrics discipline and usage reviews
Datadog questions, answered
Our Datadog bill exploded. Can they help?
Yes. Custom metric sprawl and unfiltered logs are the usual causes, and both are fixable in weeks, not months.
Can they define SLOs for us?
Yes. SLO definition with error budgets and burn-rate alerts is core senior SRE work.
Datadog or the Grafana stack?
Datadog for speed and breadth, Grafana LGTM for cost control. Seniors will model both against your scale.
