Integrating with Datadog

You can use the Agent to collect and send logs to Datadog for data monitoring and analysis.

To ingest logs to Datadog, complete these steps:

  1. Install the Agent on each node of your Dremio cluster.

  2. Change logs_enabled: false to logs_enabled: true in the datadog.yaml.

  3. Create a dremio.d/ folder in the conf.d/ Agent configuration directory.

  4. Create a conf.yaml file in java.d/ directory using the following example:

    Example for conf.yaml
    # This is an example inputs.conf for uploading Dremio logs to Datadog.
    #
    # To learn more about Dremio log files please see the documentation located at
    # https://docs.dremio.com/current/sonar/monitoring/#logs

    logs:
