Datadog Developers

IRL INSIGHTS: Kate Binder (Business Analytics @ @WHOOP) explains how their team built a culture of experimentation with Protocols in @datadoghq Experimentation, giving teams a repeatable framework so they’re not starting every test from scratch. #circuslondon🎪 #whoop #experimentation

Starting today, you can now ask @datadoghq why your database got slow and get back: • the root cause • the impacted query • the deploy that triggered it • remediation steps One example: A query jumped from 15ms → 447ms because an index scan flipped into a sequential scan after a deploy. Database Investigator identified the regression and validated the fix after remediation. Read more: datadoghq.com/blog/database-… #datadog

It hooks directly into @nodejs primitives as extensions load, so you can actually see and control what extensions are doing inside your editor. Now available on: • VS Code Marketplace: marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName… • Open VSX:  open-vsx.org/extension/data… • GitHub: github.com/DataDog/IDE-SH… @datadoghq

LAUNCHED: @datadoghq IDE-Shepherd is an open-source extension for VS Code + @cursor_ai that detects and blocks suspicious extension behavior in real time: • unexpected network requests • malicious process execution • dangerous filesystem access • supply chain attack activity

Instead of manually digging through long recordings, you can see: • what the user was trying to do • where friction happened • why they dropped or hit an error Huge upgrade for debugging + product analysis workflows. Read all about it: datadoghq.com/blog/ai-summar… @datadoghq

LAUNCHED: @datadoghq Session Replay now gives you: • AI-generated replay summaries • smart chapters for user journeys • direct links to key moments in a session

this april recap is 🔥

@datadoghq @greptile @warpdotdev @opencode this is a lineup you love to see

AI coding assistants aren’t just copilots anymore, they’re becoming autonomous collaborators. At #DASH2026, founders from @greptile, @warpdotdev, and @opencode break down how agentic systems are reshaping the SDLC, developer roles, and what it takes to build with AI for real.

Day 1 of #CircusLondon by @Speero_agency x @datadoghq has wrapped 👏🏻 #circuslondon @BenJLabay

UPCOMING: May 20th - Datadog Detect is hosting 3 sessions on how detection engineering is evolving to address potential agentic threats 🤖 Speakers include @Dropbox's Christopher Witter, #Datadog's Rex Guo, and more. Save your spot: datadoghq.com/event/datadog-…

@geren8te what's up...

@datadogdevs Whats up datadog

We are excited about this 👏

@ycombinator @lxbrun @amilabs @oliveur @datadoghq @kiwicopple @supabase @james406 @posthog 👏👏👏

Startup School is coming to Paris! 🇫🇷 Hear from founders like @lxbrun of @amilabs, @oliveur of @datadoghq, @kiwicopple of @supabase, @james406 of @posthog, and more. And join the best builders and hackers from across France and Europe for a day of talks and sessions with YC partners.

Codex was catching things outside the immediate diff: • cross-service interactions • downstream API risk • missing test coverage • broader architectural side effects Read all about it: openai.com/index/datadog/ #datadog #codex @datadoghq @OpenAI @OpenAIDevs

Datadog x Codex feels like a pretty important shift in software engineering. We replayed historical production incidents against old PRs using Codex. In ~22% of the incidents reviewed, engineers said the feedback would’ve changed the outcome. @datadoghq @OpenAI @OpenAIDevs

@maxirodgo @claudeai @ClaudeDevs 💯

A must watch talk from our very own Sesh at Code w/ @claudeai talking about Temper and BitsEvolve, highly recommend! youtube.com/live/EdmuYPBt_… @ClaudeDevs

Are you going to DASH? @mradamscott is too.

@RhysSullivan This is great. Stealing.
