Join us for the very first meetup of the Datadog Dublin User Group, with networking and talks from experienced practitioners!

**🏠 18:00 - Arrival: Networking, Drinks & Snacks (40 min.)**
Meet and greet your peers, grab food and drink

**📆 18:40 - Introduction**
**🎙️ Speaker:** Anatoly Mikhaylov, Principal Engineer at Zendesk, Datadog Ambassador
**Description:** User group kick off followed by very successful customer story. Anatoly will share real life examples how Datadog supports Zendesk. He will share how valuable Datadog is to support multi-billion enterprise for over a decade, how it evolved and what problems it helps to solve. From an observability tool it became incident detection and prevention tool, database reliability powerhouse and it helped to shape how we deploy changes to production with confidence.

**📆 19:00 - Powering Platform Engineering through Datadog**
**🎙️ Speaker:** Marcel Drechsler, Product Owner @ andsafe
**Description:** In the rapidly changing landscape of Platform Engineering, Datadog has evolved from a monitoring tool into a comprehensive foundation for Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs). This session explores the journey of scaling observability and security into a unified platform strategy that reduces developer friction. We will dive into how Datadog’s expanding ecosystem provides the essential building blocks for modern self-service infrastructure. Attendees will learn how to leverage these integrated features to build a more resilient and transparent developer experience. Discover how to transform your Datadog instance into a strategic asset for your platform’s success.

**📆 19:40 - Pay for What You Use, Use What You Pay For: Frugal Architecture with Datadog Cloud Costs**
**🎙️ Speaker:** Apostolis Apostolidis, Lead Archirect @ Flipdish, Datadog Ambassador
**Description:**
We've all seen that Slack message. Someone senior forwards the monthly cloud bill with a single line: "Can someone take a look at this? Why has it spiked so much?" Nobody knows. Even worse, nobody owns it. And that's exactly the issue.

At Flipdish, we fixed that by bringing cloud and SaaS cost data into Datadog: the same tool our engineers already use for logs, metrics and traces. Now spend wasn't a finance report. It was a dashboard any engineer could pull up, attribute to a service, and act on like any other signal.

In this talk, I'll share what we found when we actually looked, how we embed cost awareness into architecture reviews and incident response, and why AI workloads are making this discipline urgent, where a single runaway prompt can spike your bill overnight in a way no latency alert would catch. If you can alert on a p99 spike, you can alert on a cost spike. Same signal. Different dimension.

🐶 Datadog User Group Meetup Fortaleza — 1ª Edição

Fortaleza

KubeCon just wrapped and the AWS summit will be right around the corner. What's better than an event that combines both?!

Join us for a relaxed evening of good conversation, familiar faces, and a couple of sharp talks from speakers who were just on stage. Whether you're still buzzing from KubeCon or gearing up for the AWS summit, this is the perfect way to bridge the gap.

**On the agenda:**
We'll line up two talks (roughly 20 minutes each) from speakers spanning both events — fresh perspectives, real-world insights, and plenty to talk about over drinks afterward.

**The format:**

* Walk in, grab a drink, say hi
* Two talks back to back (\~40 min total)
* Open floor: food, drinks, and good people

Food and drinks will be on us. Vegetarian options will be made available.

This one is intentionally low-key: no packed agenda, no rush. Just a chill chance to connect and learn more about tech you like from real people.

Looking forward to seeing you there!
