I rage closed that window for downloading a 720p(!) 2.5MB video showing some swooshing squares that takes up the entirety of the "welcome to this content" section. It's one level of disrespect for my time to eat a huge swath of space with a gif, it's a whole other level to put a movie trailer above your blog content just to make squares dance around

In an attempt to rescue this rant with some actual content: one might have interest in the recent series of threads over in r/devops about people's differing experiences between datadog's _product_ and datadog's _organization_. I would guess if there are problems knowing ahead of time how much mere monitoring costs, that "attack surface" grows the more products one attempts to consume from datadog

Doesn't bode well for DataDog's Performance Monitoring tool, especially if they don't use it on their own site!

These tools are major. The last company I was at extensively planned error budgets and SLAs, but the tooling was very squishy. Seeing the incident board and tooling around monitoring feels like they hit the nail on the head.

I don't know much about Datadog, but it seems like they are building exactly what their customers need.
