Correcting bugs can be painful. Some of the worst bugs are ones that only cause problems occasionally - resource leaks, network errors, and edge cases of all types. Logs can help to address these failures, but are difficult to comb through, and if you want any kind of aggregate statistic, you have to perform command-line acrobatics.

Datadog is a modern monitoring tool that helps track your application’s performance in real time, identify bottlenecks, and detect recurring problems at a glance.

Software Developers Troy Rosenberg and Danny Rivers from ROI Revolution came to demonstrate to our students how they use Datadog to collect real-time metrics to respond to problems immediately and correct some of the most troublesome bugs.
