Ansible + Datadog: Monitor your automation, automate your monitoring
A new integration with Ansible has been introduced to join other automation integrations like Chef and Puppet. This integration allows users to monitor their infrastructure automation tasks, such as provisioning, deployment, and configuration management. Real-time reports on server runs, tracking of key performance metrics, setting alerts for failed tasks, and correlating events with performance metrics from any part of the infrastructure are some of the features provided by this new integration. Additionally, Ansible can help automate monitoring by installing and configuring the Datadog Agent on each host, allowing monitoring to scale effortlessly along with the infrastructure.
