FeaturesNews
We’re excited to introduce Fauna’s new Datadog integration, enabling users to automatically ship Fauna Logs directly into Datadog for enhanced observability, query analysis, and debugging. The combination of Fauna’s modern, serverless database architecture with Datadog’s leading observability platform enables you to build and monitor resilient applications with ease. With this integration, you can easily track database activity, monitor performance, and troubleshoot issues all within your Datadog environment.
Together, they provide a holistic view of your application’s performance, from the database to the infrastructure layer.
Check out the Fauna docs or Datadog docs to get started.

Key Benefits of the Fauna-Datadog Integration

1. Automatic Log Streaming by Database or Region Group

Effortlessly send Fauna Logs to Datadog, where they can be organized by database or region group, allowing you to monitor performance across distributed environments. This makes it easier to track and analyze logs for specific databases or regions in your application infrastructure.

2. Enhanced Query Analysis and Debugging

Fauna Logs provide granular insights into database activity, including query execution times and performance bottlenecks. With Datadog’s powerful Log Explorer, you can search, filter, and analyze Fauna Logs to debug issues and optimize query performance, all in one place.

3. Datadog’s Built-in Visualization, Alerting, and Facets

Once your Fauna Logs are in Datadog, you can apply Datadog’s built-in visualization and alerting tools. Create custom dashboards to visualize Fauna Log data alongside other key metrics, or set up alerts to notify you of critical issues in real time. By using facets, you can quickly filter logs based on various attributes, making it easier to identify trends or anomalies.

4. Unified Observability Across Fauna and Other Data Sources

By integrating Fauna Logs with Datadog, you can correlate database performance with data from your broader infrastructure, application logs, and other services already monitored in Datadog. This unified view enhances your ability to diagnose cross-system issues, monitor end-to-end application health, and improve operational efficiency.

5. OAuth2 Authorization for Secure Integration

Setting up the Datadog integration is simple and secure. You can authorize Fauna to send logs to your Datadog account using OAuth2, ensuring a streamlined and safe connection between your Fauna database and Datadog’s observability platform.

How to Get Started

To enable the Datadog integration, follow the steps in the Fauna documentation. Within minutes, you’ll be able to start monitoring your Fauna Logs in Datadog, complete with powerful visualization and alerting capabilities. Whether you’re debugging queries or optimizing performance across distributed databases, this new integration provides the tools you need to gain deep insights into your database activity.
We can’t wait to see how you leverage the new Fauna & Datadog integration to improve your observability and operational efficiency. Start exploring your Fauna Logs in Datadog today and take control of your database monitoring like never before!
