Datadog integration #102

Open axelfontaine opened 8 years ago

axelfontaine commented 8 years ago

With automatic collector installation and configuration

amovsesy commented 8 years ago

Would this also allow for a SumoLogic collector?

herder commented 7 years ago

We'd really like this feature. Also, since we have different accounts for prod and stage, we would like to be able to specify a separate API key per environment. Something like datadog.apiKey.stage=xxxx, perhaps?

It would also be nice to get deploy/scale etc events to Datadog :-)

Is anything happening with this or is there at least some sort of alternative solution for fusing data dog agent together with main app?

JorgenG commented 2 years ago

@axelfontaine It would be really nice to get some support for this, similar to how NewRelic is supported. I guess an option around it would be to somehow package this as native library and then start the agent from some running application.

Any updated status on this?

bbatarelo commented 2 years ago

@JorgenG One way it could work is by setting up a separate app/instance that would be running the linux agent. Then you should be able to install javaagent on your JVM app servers that would send events to the agent instance. It isn't the most straightforward way and it also uses one more app from your subscription plan, but if I really needed to do it I'd probably go that route. I started exploring an alternative route some time ago by chrooting virtual box file system and figuring out if I can install linux agent side to side with an app server, but didn't have enough time to pursue it further. Having linux agent installed by Boxfuse crew as a part of the image creation would be the best solution, but it's up to them to decide on that :)

JorgenG commented 2 years ago

Good idea. Having it in a separate running instance could definitely work, but sadly you loose all the "instance" monitoring data. However, that is not the most crucial one, as we do have cloudwatch for the higher granularity parts like CPU etc.

I think that might be a more valuable spending of our time instead of going the low-level boxfuse route. Thanks a lot for the input @bbatarelo, appreciated! 👍

It would be really great if installing the native datadog agent was an option in boxfuse.
