    I live across of it, and I have to say it has the grace you'd expect of a 60's housing project in the eastern bloc. The rendering is quite flattering.

    I work at Datadog - we're only using ElasticSearch for full-text structured events, not time-series, which represent 10,000 - 100,000 times more data in volume. We had to build our…

    We don't use the recommendation engine but the underlying platform, which makes it really simple to write and run pig jobs. Though the majority of our business deals with real-time…

    FWIW we've been using the mortar platform to run large pig jobs without a fuss at http://datadog.com and we've been very happy with it. Glad to see them contribute their recommende…

    Nope - all the data stays there, and can be shown on dashboards. We just don't show the hosts that don't submit data in the host lists, and don't count them towards the total numbe…

    Pup will graph all the metrics Datadog does - it already collects OS metrics, and comes with a set of plug-ins for connecting to common apps, and it wouldn't be very difficult to c…

    We designed pup to be first and foremost accessible to developers, but it will work just the same on production systems. Once you get addicted to metrics and want more aggregation …
