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. **📆 20:20 - To be announced** **🎙️ Speaker: To be announced** **Description: To be announced**
